Sentimentimortality

More lovely eyes I've never seen Than hers that fade pale blue to green Those gentle eyes that glimmer deep And harbor such a tender strength

Nor a sweeter countenance found Than the face that from which sounds A voice my heart glad quickens to hear Tones full of vivacious cheer

I long to caress that lady's cheek Soft and satin, might our lips meet Did I fold my arms about her frame In breathless gasps worship her name

Slow, draw her body to my chest Embrace the one that I love best Trail passionate kisses now unchecked On her mouth and down her neck

Hands entwining through her hair One breath, heartbeat, and space we share Blood rushing, burning hot inside Face flushed, I bend to meet her eyes

I could lose myself inside that gaze In her company all of my days She owns my heart, given free While I wait for her, I wait gladly.
