Love Poem: Captured

Captured

Let me live in tomorrow, today
far away from yesterday.

Dreamy thoughts entertained for hours
to feel the rapture of your thought,
the sound of words that brush 
against my ear, soon desire
follows uncontrolled or measured.

Lifted to heights of arousal never
attained before, even dreams
could not compare to passion that 
flows through veins hot, flustered
taking so much to heart unknowingly
reacting, such response becomes 
discomfort one step closer to another day.

Alone with silence, an empty space
within arms reach holding tears at bay,
while kisses tempt to touch again
lingering through memories played,
for friends with only benefits.
