Drowning

To be near you is bliss...
The effect lingers a while.. 
Like being touched softly by an angel
And feeling the glow all day
Talking with you is easy
Like laying on a feather bed
and sprawling out 
In the soft comfort it offers
To stand by you is a thrill
Feeling your energy 
Like static electric 
I tingle with you proximity

Knowing you is living
Feeling the power of your soul
As it reaches out and oh....
so gently whispers to mine
''I know you, I've been looking for you,
I felt that you were close''
Touching you is breathing
Feeling your skin fill me
with oxygen and revitalising me
flowing through me 
Wanting you is agony
Knowing that you are not here
not with me.
Experiencing gut wrenching separation
like being torn from your own spirit

Looking into your eyes is..
Well... I can't do that
You're like Medusa, I cannot look
Not straight on.. 
because..... 
Because you would know everything
if I did, you would know my desire
feel my ache for you
But more.... looking into you eyes
I would drown... willingly 
I would throw myself in the ocean 
that your eyes hide 
I would jump and hope.
Hope to be engulfed in everything that is you
To totally wallow in and soak up all that you are
And I would fear losing that feeling so much
that I cannot look into your eyes
Not yet....
