Love Poem: Crush

Crush

The day i first met her 
She moved along like a timed slide show
With grace and chaste in her stride 
Swinging her hips like a desert Carmel 
And stepping on the ground like it hurts.

That’s when i first saw her.

Meeting her was a dream come true,
Speaking to her was like melting the snow.
Her voice like the ocean singing low
With no turbulent waves to alter the flow.

That’s when i first met her.

Touching her was like food to a pauper
Her skin smooth like a silk wall
Her body soft like sheep wool

That’s when i first touched her.

Holding her in my arms,
Being with her all my life
...was never imagined
For it never happened
