Love Poem: Breathless

Breathless

breathless
keep me breathless
head on chest
bare
red ribbons on his back
hold me tight
and don't let me go
dreaming of the day
when the planets align
when the sun and earth reconcile
once in a blue moon
the feels
tingling up and down my arms
breathless
never was ready for
something as much as this
as much as she wants to shout his name
a whisper in his ear
is the only one she can bear
the only one adequate
tracing the trail on the map
with her fingertip
slow and steady
alluring
let’s go out for a
midnight horse ride
all night long, from
dusk to dawn
until they’re
breathless
break a sweat
taste
a bite of their love
a true decadence
tart and sweet
oksa silk
weaved with chirimen silk
competitive folds and colors
yet never clashing
bringing out the best hues
pinned together on the mannequin bodice
a worldly design, so
breathless
find her in your dreams
faraway, never near
mayhaps you will find her here
in the city state where the sun rises
never stops rising
travel far from across the
city state of dawn tranquility
both dream destinations
breathtaking views
the mountains, the valleys, prairies
running smooth
breathless
