    You and I

    We fit together perfectly

    You and I…

    My back, crammed inside the seat of your jeans

    On the couch,

    Just being lazy and loving

    I stare at the glare the television cast

    This way I don’t have to face you

    And I don’t want to…

    Because I can’t

    When I look at you I see in your eyes all that you want from me,

    Your heart, begging to trust me, looking just like a little kid

    But the man in you won’t let me in

    You won’t budge,

    And to your surprise neither will I

    I won’t push, because I know that you’ll pull away

    I won’t give in because I’ll be taken by you

    Swept up like a bag in a hurricane…

    And God only knows if I can handle the storm

    There is life in the novelty of this dance

    And it has a rhythm beyond the twist and turns and

    Dips and spins twirls and jerks….

    With you I am standing still and dizzy

    It is a whirlwind

    A compilation of all of the disastrous natural beauty

    And the fire that ignites it

    We are flames

    And I play without any fear of ever getting burned

    I draw breath and I become alive in front of you

    You

    Excite

    Me

    Your Vivacity enthralls me

    Here, come be by my side and let me be beautiful with you

    As I conquer the world

    You shall captivate heaven

    I stand

    You lead

    We are as one…

    I loved every second of this. Somehow, I hear the lines, "There's nothing like...You and I... Baby...This... Is... No... Ordinary Love" when I read this, and somehow, some way I am transported to a lovers' oasis, the one which exists deeply in the soul that only two people know when they join deeply at the level that God intended for Men and Women to enjoy. M'dear, I am in rapture.

    Thank you so very much it is more moving to me to touch some other relatable soul than it is to release the burdens of my heart!

    ......Because I can’t When I look at you I see in your eyes all that you want from me, Your heart, begging to trust me, looking just like a little kid But the man in you won’t let me in You won’t budge, And to your surprise neither will I I won’t push, because I know that you’ll pull away....' Those words right there, speak to me a million times, the feeling of despair, when you know you need to act but can't !

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

    Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
