Starcrossed Lovers
If your face is on my mind,
your eyes held glimmering in mine,
the taste and feel of smooth sweet skin,
the passion burning within,
my resolve falls to tatters,
your love is all,
that matters.
Please,
don't let your next words be a joke,
I'm searching desperately,
for the truth you once spoke.
If flickers like lamplight inside of you,
you can't understand the power,
of what your words do.
A simple caress,
the calm intake of your breath,
the soft strength of your arms,
I'm captivated, entranced, enthralled.
Sharp tongue,
daggers for words,
steel eyes,
all things that hurt.
Will you lead me,
like Romeo led Juliet to their death,
already you steal my breath.
