hey pretty,

i dreamed your face

it was the warmest i had ever felt

hey beauty,

i think of your gentle hands

and my heart weeps

(heart in my throat,

in the warmest sunlit pit,

my lips to your precious skin)

hey softie,

have i mentioned of my love?

have i told you how good you make me feel?

have i promised you not to die

to thrive

right there with you?
