I Need You

I need you
Showering me with beams
Keeping me warm
Amidst cool jealous eyes.

I need that perfect chord,
Your voice in my ear
So that no other sound compares.

I need full measure of your smile
Meeting mine face on.

I need to feel the nearness of you
Filling me with portions of love.

I need to see you standing firm
A far off, yet closer in spirit of knowing.

I need you with me hungering, and
Thirsting from this self-imposed
Love fast, killing us.

I need you to rise with me, in glow 
Of the moment, when we embrace and
Toast to newness of passion.
