Author's Notes:  "My Heart Skips a Beat My Love" is a passionate romance poem whereby I've tried to capture and express certain feelings, thoughts, emotions, and variable moods that a couple in love may experience as they grow and blend into "one" in a relationship.  God only knows how difficult and tempestuous many relationships can be at times when you are dealing with the thoughts, feelings, and passions of two people who care for one another and are in love, but also must contend with the challenges of everyday living, etc.  As with any of the poems that I write, I will leave any final judgments to you the reader.  (Gary Bateman - November 5, 2014) (Free Verse)

My heart skips a beat my love each and every time I’m with you my dearest sweet and lovely Darling Since the passions and feelings you stir in me Touch the very depth of my inner being and soul And render themselves not to mere words only Suitable for depiction, exhibition, understanding Rather to the image and strength of your beauty And your rapturous desire and feeling as they Defy rational attempts at any simple description For you are the most radiant beyond all compare My heart skips a beat my love when we lie together Locked in a most enchanting embrace and kissing So deeply, palpably that we run out of breath and pant Anxiously at what comes next in our mutual longing And crescendo as our passions explode and express Themselves in a most hungry trail of urges and desires Which makes finding love for us all the more magical Pairing us together like a couple of star-struck kids Lost impossibly in moments of hope and imagination In a timeless world of love, desire, emotion, and oneness My heart skips a beat my love when we walk so closely Hand-in-hand talking, laughing, and living our dreams Confronting the world and taking on whatever comes Next as we steer our ship of destiny on a true course Where our like-thoughts and deep love for each other Mean something quite special that only Dreamers and Poets can imagine and set to melody and harmony in perfect Verses of sheer passion and delight painted onto a canvas Of unending happiness where Heaven and Earth are one My heart skips a beat my love when we’re forever one Gary Bateman, Copyright © All Rights Reserved (November 5, 2014) (Free Verse)

Love is a sweet death.In love we just forge ahead to singularity.. a prelude to a big bang. We call is abyakta..we cannot express it in words. It's pure ecstasy, it empowers us. Great poem. adding it to my fav list.
