Love Poem: Once Again

Once Again

Let us fall, once again,
into the oblivion of unknowing,
unseeing, unhearing.
Let us fall, once again,
into touch and feel and skin on skin.
 
Let me feel, once again,
your heartbeat beneath your shirt,
your breath atop my head.
Let me feel, once again,
your fingertips on my arm,
legs tangled in my own.
 
Let me see, once again,
your eyes shining,
glowing, laughing.
Let me see, once again,
your smile pointed towards me.
 
Let me hear, once again,
the words you say,
the ones that pull on my heart.
Let me hear, once again,
my name fall from your lips.
 
Let me be, once again,
wrapped up in your arms,
your gaze, your love.
Let me be, once again,
yours.
