Passion emboldens me,
a temporary elixir
I rush, thrilled;
my veins fill thickly with
the thought of you:
Your eyes, holding my gaze,
filling my mind with
spears of scalding iron;
My memory flooded with
your presence
remade, revived intangibly,
My body reels helplessly,
retreats needfully
from this vision
To await you
To connect with you
To search for you
To find you
And the moment comes so suddenly,
every muscle in my body
tensing, aching, ready,
poignantly poised for
Your touch
Your gaze
Your appraisal
For you…
Then, you appear….
