I breathe you in until I can no more
And savor ev’ry moment that you’re near
Breathless. Winded. Your closeness I adore
For in your sweet embrace I have no fear
I drink you in until I am replete
You fill and overflow my wanting heart
Two souls rejoice and hearts together beat
A bond beyond compare; never to part
And as we slowly dance this dance of love
And all others are but a silhouette
You draw me close; as one; like hand and glove
Then speak to me the words I’ll not forget
And in my heart they’re locked; and there they’ll stay
Forever more – until my dying day

Jerry: I don’t know how you do it but you have the ability to “get it”, to get to the heart of another’s written words, and then to describe so well what you see. Thank you, Jerry, I smile when I see a comment from you and then I can’t help myself, I eagerly devour your feedback.
