One Heartbeat Away

when the words barely flow trickling as the winter stream and thoughts cheat the night tossing and turning not coming out right that's when I look to you picturing those soft dreamy eyes undressing me that silken smooth hair dangling upon broad shoulders in the sweet scent of comfort my heart flutters my mind frees and words flow with ease knowing you're only one heartbeat away

SO sweet Tim. To have that person always a heartbeat away. Hey, I read at Jan's poem that you are letting your membership expire. But you can still be here, right? Please don't ever leave. I love having you around here!

With some looks no words are needed to convey a message. Romantically written, Tim.

Wonder if love is man made or does it come from another deminsion?
