"Distractions"

traffic passing me by really fast
the simple way you make me laugh
a look,a smile,a wave,a wink
my loss of thought process,i cannot think

sweet distractions keep coming to me
pleasant distractions only I can see
wonderful distractions,daydreams an fantasies
your gentle touch that makes me weak
the way you listen,the way you speak
only to me
your such a kind friend
you make me wanna live again
I lose all thoughts when your near
yours is the voice I long to hear

sweet distractions keep coming to me
pleasant distractions only I can see
wonderful distractions,daydreams an fantasies

when you whisper in my ear
oh,how i wanna be with you
to have an hold near
to be in love an lose all fears

sweet distractions of you keep coming to me
pleasant distractions of us only we can see
wonderful distractions of daydreams an fantasies
an spiritual happiness for both you an me

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

I like the repetitive nature of the poem for emphasis. This is really a sweet poem....

               "sweet distractions keep coming to me
                pleasant distractions only I can see
                wonderful distractions,daydreams an fantasies."

Those are nice flowing lines!

For me life is one big distraction. I guess you'd say I was a dreamer who could really relate to this poem.
Nice flow throughout

This is beautiful and I know the feeling all too well.  Ah yes, wether a lover or a friend, it's a feeling of being high, floating on a cloud.  Thanks for the read, it's a good one!
