Kiss From Rose

She gave me a heartfelt glance.
I melted at the sight of her.
An antidote to my calm
Anxiety flowed through
As sweat oozes from my skin

Like an addiction, I kept wanting more.
Lost in thoughts of wanting her more
The fume of her fragrance filled my nostrils.
A lady of my wildest dreams

In my lone state
All I saw was her elegance.
beaming at me
It shredded my courage.

She was my weakness.
My Achilles' heel
My source of hidden happiness
My intoxicant

Tell it to the world.
She's going to be my kids' mother.
She who i build my world on
She's my kiss from a rose.
The light that brightens my darkness
