Touching Me

my every thought
lingers in the passion
that is you

every touch
is like the wind
airbrushing the lake
soft ripples flowing
towards the center
vanishing 
until the next brush
of your hands
gently gliding
down

each kiss
paints me autumn's colors
making my breath rise
then fall like the shadows
on walls as the sun seduces
the clouds

each day
i grow more vibrant
in color blushed
of horizon's edge
and shine
with the same brilliance
from within this heart
that's filled with love
because of you...

This is what I call a love poem, the feelings you express are exactly that...love. The love for another that makes you feel so giddy inside that you can't contain your self. Love sure looks good on you.

the line "as the sun seduces the clouds" paints nature in a mischevious way, and the motion of the wind on the lake has a soft mysterious intent behind it. I like how the poem encircles you in nature's vibrant way
