Breathless

Breathless is the way I feel whenever you’re around; just your presence in the room even without a sound. Breathless is the way I get as you walk across the floor, and brush against me as you pass, and leave my heart to soar. Breathless is the way I am When your gentle lips meet mine; Warm and wet and tender and soft as summer wine. Breathless is the way I’m left whenever we make love and drift off into slumber under the stars above.
