"I AM" challenge

I am the essence of you, in the presence of me.
I wonder if my dreams treasured in hold, shall see reality.
I hear your voice calling within the storms that rage in my night.
I see your shadow beckoning me to collide in pleasures delight.
I want, I need, I desire the always of your decree.
I am the essence of you, in the presence of me.

I pretend in waters surround, you enter and freeze me to your press.
I feel you always touching my mind, shaping, molding, I acquiesce.
I touch your touch, wrapping myself within reflections flamed by candle light.
I worry that this is but a dream, to be snuffed out each night.
I cry the moment your whispers leave me weakened with no guarantee.
I am the essence of you, in the presence of me.

I understand your love for me is true and must trust in your word.
I say what my heart desires in expressions to you only, heard.
I dream of the day when words of love shall not be distanced any more.
I try each morning to hold onto the memory of each breath shared before.
I hope that the heavens above hear my nightly plea.
I am the essence of you, in the presence of me.

Now that's a powerfully appealing thought!

Beautiful, very beautiful in its whole.

... No unrequited love here.  I felt every tremulous breath and delight in a vibrantly warm intelligent lover/friend who opens worlds of the heart...only so many are fortunate enough to discover.  

I'm thinking we find such rappport when we are ready to give it, too...

I couldn't agree with the other two comments more!
