Limerence
I am vitreous
like a candle-flame in the gale-wind of
your gaze, trembling
Your perfect gaze
that captures all realities in the oceans of
your eyes, surreal
Life falls away
when I catch a glimpse of heaven in
your form, untouchable
You were created
to confound what science found, only religion can
contain you, explaining
You are beauty
the definition of everything good and sinful in
one breath, breathless
They say "infatuation"
but they do not understand the soul-deep longing
to be with you, always
