Him
Him.......
He's built a fast lane
In my mind,
Occupied solely by him,
The street is never quiet.

I wake with thoughts of him,
Get through my every day
With him following,
Like a beat to a symphony.
I fall asleep to fantasies of him,
Only to dream of my imaginations of him,
He's all consuming.

I've never been the type to love a little,
It's the full mile and not a middle,
But I'm restrained from doing that,
Because I cannot stake my feelings on his,
Until they've been divined,
Or at least,
He makes them known to this heart of mine.

I can still remember the last time I saw him,
Picture vivid in my mind,
His presence around me,
My shock at his beauty,
His smile that I could watch for weeks,
His slim hands I want on me,
His chill calm to my blazing heat,
His voice, an endless melody,
Filtering through my ears,
Dialing straight through to my heart.

He makes me smile and laugh,
His mind, an intelligence I love to watch work,
His calm, an anchor in the chaos,
His kindness, a contributor to my madness,
His voice, heaven in a song,
His strength, a staccato in my pulse,
His eyes, reveal paradise,
He's everything a woman can desire,
If only to experience wildfire,
But alas, I desire him for the full time,
And the hereafter.

I like him a whole lot,
More than my words can form,
But it's scary to think,
He may never know these thoughts,
Because we're both too scary a lot,
To share with one another,
The depth of our knot.
