Lost In Love

L uscious lips that slightly part reveal to my delight
O ne gorgeous smile meant just for me and teeth that sparkle white.
S heepishly I drop my eyes, afraid that he might guess
T he sudden urge that sweeps my soul to feel his sweet caress. 

I nfatuation some might say! But I can only sigh. . . 
N ever have I felt this way for any other guy.

L ong-lashed luminescent eyes are those of hazel hue
O bserving me!  What soulful eyes I’m looking back into!
V anquished by his gaze am I. My forecast may sound grim. . . 
E vermore I’m lost because my heart is lost to him!

Drunk and stumbling in an amorous haze. She gladly roams in her glorious daze. Awaiting her next taste of honey. That you just can't buy with all the worlds money.
