breathless

there are times when with you, my
love, that i find myself breathless. like
when i watch you sleep, and i kiss
you softly and touch your face. i find
myself breathless at the sight of your beauty.

then there are the times when i catch
you watching me, and the look in you
eyes says it all. you wear your love for
me in those eyes, and i find myself
breathless at my beauty reflected in them.

other times i find my self apart
from you, and i remember your feel
and your scent. and i quiver, my body
responding to what i know so well.
again, breathless, i await our time together.

the times i like best, though, are
when we're together, and you are loving me.
holding me close and are one with me.
you whisper to me those secret words
leaving me breathless through and through.

i smile, you smile, and we are one.

this poem moved me, celtic rose. Bless you for writing it and double bless you for posting it. This explains what I feel so much for someone....I mean, albeit we're just friends (for now!!! ahaaa!) but god, you captured it on the nail. The images and the feelings...powerful indeed.

Applause! Applause!
