You've captured my heart,
Dear Love.
You've got my undivided attention,
My friend.
You won't hurt me, will you?
I can put my trust
In your compassionate heart, can't I?
You wouldn't take advantage
Of my innocence, would you?
All I am is devoted to you--
You are in the air I breathe,
In the steps I take.
I live in a continuous daydream
Because of your fascinating expressions.
Every day is filled
With thoughts of only you.
You are my only desire,
And all I'll ever need.
You might have heard it before,
But there's no denying this emotion.
Time is wasting, dear,
When I am not with you
And in your sweet presence.


I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe until you're resting here with me...

Ah.....
the heart is ready and willing to be captured, and is stolen away when we least expect it!! This is a really great poem, and I truly enjoyed the read, my friend!!  


Follow your dream!

sp,

You are writing with the lightness of love in your words.  This is very nice and I am happy for you.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

Reminds me of the Semisonic songs called "Air That I Breathe".   "Sometimes all I need is the air that I breath...and to love you...James

SP* I always find it scary to put my trust in someone new...but without risk there is no chance of finding something wonderful in return...my best to you and good luck finding all that you hope for...great use of these emotions in your work~

Rich with the fresh air of new love, ripe with the inevitable fear of that love, and smoothly written.
Enjoyed!

James:  thanks!  I'm glad you could stop by!!  

pepper:  yes, it is, isn't it?  Thank you so much, my friend!!  

butterflies:  you are absolutely right.  sometimes we have to break out of the 'ordinary' to find what we're looking for.  Thanks!!  

Interloper:  well, I'm not so sure about 'brave.'  Out of my mind, maybe, but, brave, well, that'll take awhile.  Thanks!!

dragonpoe:  thank you for the compliments!  I'm glad you enjoyed!!  

Aim:  oh, girlie, you flatter me once again!  Got to stop that.  Well, not really, but, anyway, tell Mr. Schmoh, thanks for the visit!!  Thank you, as always, my friend!

ethome:  eat your keyboard, eh?  Well, thank you, my friend, for your wonderful reply.  You are too kind!  

Best:  yes, dreaming all the time.  Thank you!
