Intensity
I rest my eyes upon you
And I’m home
Your presence and absence shape
The ebb and flow of my emotions
I breathe in your affection
Like an oxygen starved being
I drink in your soul
Like a sponge on the ocean bed
Your fingertips massage my heart
My eyes trace your face
Your breath draws me closer
And takes mine away
Your voice envelops me
Your thoughts beckon me
Your expressions intrigue me
Your existence consumes me
My spirit rivals the power
Of a thousand stampeding mustangs
And it is brought under bridal by
The yolk of your love
