As I Love You
By Richard Maxfield
12-23-2000

One look and I know
There’s no doubt what is to come
The fire in your eyes consumes me
I feel weakened as I fall in your spell
Reaching to touch the flame that burns
My hand caresses your soft rounded shoulder
I can’t help myself but to run my fingers in your hair
Your moist red lips beckon me to a kiss of passion delight
Easing my hand to your face my fingers slide to your ear
My thumb on your cheek lightly feeling the softness of your skin
My breath quickens in anticipation, as my heart pounds harder and harder
My left arm reaching around you as I place my hand in the small of your back
I draw you closer and closer as our bodies meet becoming as one flesh of love
At last the moment has arrived that I savor, no I live for, the sweetness of your lips

My dear, my love, my only. There was no life before you
Every dream, every prayer, every thought, every hope has been of you
Bath me in your love, hold me never let me go. Love me my love as I love you

Richard, excellant, warming up nicely I think
       
Take care

Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same

Very passionate Richard, thanks for sharing.

If a dream touches us, it exists to us as anything else that touches us.
