Love Poem: Sweethearts

Sweethearts

How I miss what I never had
Long hot kisses kinetic cranberry flavored
As I struggle with my need to breathe
Every breath in and out for you
The deepest fuzzy feelings ferment 
In every fiber of my body my soul
We are so close yet so far
Long distance love challenges so unique 
Yet we climb each mountain peak
Standing victorious in each others heart
Violet veins pumping the same goals
Hopes purple passion and old fashioned needs
I’m unable to flee from you
Because you are inside of me
It’s pleasant and peaceful 
How you make love to my mind
With only your words so kind
And I am grateful for whatever 
Way we connect be it chats
Or email or internet 
We have only a moment to blink
And find reasons why we think 
Time is on our side
And we surf it like ocean tide
I think we are very special
And as you say
The heart wants what it wants
So it’s not really a problem 
Being apart when we are an island 
Intellectually connected and destined
We have beat the odds
And now we can be sweethearts 
For as long as blessed by God
