Just because…

candles-2550688_1280

He knows the exact way
To pull me out
Whenever the world
Doesn’t want me about

He sees me for me
And loves all my flaws
He accepts who I am
There is no hidden clause

He keeps my secrets
And shares his own
Never making me feel
As if I’m alone

He cares for me
In a way nobody else does
And he does it all
Just because

Writing prompt:  Melted bliss

The taste of love

celebration-2236025_1280

Love often tastes
Like bitter wine
Exhilarating at first
Then unrefined

Yet we never stop
Consuming our fill
The taste matters not
So long as it’s real

Kiss me…

people-2563426_1280

Kiss me until I can’t breathe
Press your body close to mine
Do this every day to me
And feel our hearts entwine

Beloved

romance-1209046_1280

He wraps me in such loving words
Words written only for me
And like a warm comforting blanket
He covers me with his heart

How?

man-802062_1280

How do you do it
How do you send my senses into a tizzy
My heart starts racing
And my head becomes dizzy

How is it this happens
Every time I read what you’ve written
Such simple words
And I’m completely smitten

How do you cause this
These sensations of bliss
I get lost in the thought
Of your smoldering kiss

How enraptured am I
To feel all of these emotions
Saturated by your love
Amazed by your devotion

How blessed I am
By the treasure I’ve found in you
My heart fully appeased
By a love that is true
