New Year Wish

Wrap yourself around me. Hold me tight. Whisper sweet nothings. All through the night. Tell me you love only me. Hold my hand for all to see. Let romance be in the air. Kiss me softly....just there. Listen to what I have to say. Let me brighten up your day. Dry my tears when my guard is down. I'll be your clown, you be mine. Here's my heart, please take it I need your love if I'm gonna make it. I have enough of being on my own. Together we could be so strong. That's my wish for the New Year. I've sent it out for you to hear. Words fail me to express my desire. Come my love, set me on fire.

Thank you Eve. The longer I wait the higher my expections. My catch may may end up a Catch 22 if I wait much longer.

Do they possess magical qualities Eve? I have already tried love potion number 9, to no avail.

Thank you Abosede. I was inspired by the romantic poem by Arthur Vaso called Do Not Speak. We are worlds apart in our approach, but the quest for romantic love is universal.
