Gwendolyn Brown Poet Free verse

Jealousy

Oh Baby, my eyes search you out
for you are my sunset
Yet I do not want the sun to see
your beauty for it is mine

My arms reach for you only
to hold against me
Yet my hands are jealous
for your touch

I yearn for your lips on mine
Yet I do not want a glass to
feel them sip its wine
This insatiable lingering love
I want only to touch

Not the wind nor the light
can I let have you
This jealousy I fight
Yet, The jealousy I understand,
you are my Man...
