Alexis Y. Poet Sonnet

I Surrendered

Mine eyes never saw such a handsome face,
thoughts of you became every part of me.
I longed to be in thine strong embrace,
You set my being aflame immediately. 
 
One look from you unlocked unknown passion, 
your presence caught me by surprise.  
I have no doubt you will bring much satisfaction, 
I want to rest on your chest until sunrise.

Who knew I'd be smitten by just a glance, 
my mind, body and soul belongs to you.
In awe of your physique; I'm in a trance,
You rescued me from feeling sad and blue.

I've found the one who holds the key to my heart,
I surrendered to love; and we shall never part.
