Dear Sunset- Love Letter

The way streaks of light
Tickles the horizons 
When sunset smiles 
Just makes my soul squeal 
And my heart do cart-wheels backwards
And I look at him
With so little care at the world
But much for him
Wishing he could tuck 
My emotions bit by bit
Into his heart and carefully melt 
Them onto the palm of his hands
So that each time we touch
Every nerve in my body responds
Shout songs of praise and happiness 
From the top of my voice as
He tastes my will 
And tread after my hand's touch 
Listening to the beat of want
As it echoes deeply
In his throat
"Tell me sunset, does your lips
Taste of mine when you lick them"
