Eve Roper Poet Sonnet

Is This Love

In the darkness a flicker of moonlight,
shadows dance. Kissing her long and sweetly
teasing, capturing her sigh craze delight,
she let out a moan unobtrusively. 

"I love you. I murmured, "Just you and I."
You make my body sing and my heart soar. 
Is this called love, or is it just a lie? 
I found my happiness I yearn for more.

I lie and daydream to belong to her,
feeling so incomplete and so helpless;
in me an ache causing a storm to stir,
holding forever leaving me breathless.

Never had to think of no one throughout, 
had only myself to worry about.
