Adonis

That stupid smile of yours
I didn’t know then, of course
An unstoppable force 
You entered my perfectly stable life
Uninformed
Unexpected
Uninvited

Vulnerable and raw
You walked into my chest
I could no longer rest
I tried my best
You have some cheek 
Some zest

It can hurt some days
Inevitable pleasure it pays
I used to think it could just be 
A Phase
No more as I just 
Live in a daze
A maddening craze

An irritating tickle
Your ability to
Make me giggle
You say so little
A penny I’ll give you
A nickel
Deep thoughts give away so little

Spellbound
I’m left dumbfound
My game we play
Your rules to obey
So many words
So little to say

A senseless touch
It feels more than much
A fictitious kiss
Can reach heights of apotheosis
Can this be real?
I wonder when I wake up
How will I feel?
