Love Poem: Our Connection

Our Connection

I could write on velvet parchment all day,
          use my right hand to quill all my emotion-
but I would never be able to find a way
                 to express my sincere affection and devotion. 

      See, the day I met you my hands quivered, 
my palms sweaty, my knees went weak-
           chills ran down my spine and I shivered, 
for you left me breathless, without a word to speak.

No longer am I lonely, no more shall I cry,
           I shall follow you on the path we long to walk-
when I'm with you my heart soars, my soul does fly,
   maybe it's your scent or the strength when you talk. 

                 When we grow old, may lust turn to compassion,
with all that you are to me, I am in so deep-
          you bring me enchantment and thirsty passion, 
so many nights I spent awake, I could not sleep.

When I die feel me in the whispering breeze,
       embrace my hands when I can no longer touch-
you see the world in me, what no one else sees, 
                                    for our connection and bond mean so much.
