Love

I am drawn to you like The stars to the midnight skies The Earth to the burning sun Water to thirsting flowers I am comfortable with you like An old pair of boots A faded pair of jeans My favorite sweater and scarf I am at peace with you like Sitting in a boat in the middle of a lake Taking a walk in silence in the country Listening to rain drops fall in the dark of night I am alive with you like The laughter that is uncontrollable The heart that goes thump, thump, thump Running through wildflowers in the wilderness Every ounce of my being Mind, body and soul are riveted by you I am alive with you, free with you, comfortable with you I love you
