This Love Is Etched In My Soul

To gaze at you makes me weak in the knees
Your breath upon my neck gives me a rush
You tantalize me as you toy and tease
Those dark eyes framed with lashes long and lush
A body pressed to mine that makes me blush

I long to keep you oh so close to me
To taste the nectar of your lingering kiss
Just rock me in your arms and set me free
I want to live my life wrapped up like this
Enraptured by you baby,filled with bliss

Washed away upon this sea of love
Hoping that we never reach the shore
Time is standing still for us,my dove
I know that this is what I've waited for
No matter what I couldn't love you more!
