I Need You
I need you
Showering me with beams
Keeping me warm
Amidst cool jealous eyes.
I need that perfect chord,
Your voice in my ear
So that no other sound compares.
I need full measure of your smile
Meeting mine face on.
I need to feel the nearness of you
Filling me with portions of love.
I need to see you standing firm
A far off, yet closer in spirit of knowing.
I need you with me hungering, and
Thirsting from this self-imposed
Love fast, killing us.
I need you to rise with me, in glow
Of the moment, when we embrace and
Toast to newness of passion.
