Sometimes
I see you from different angles.
I wonder if it is light and shadow playing tricks on my eyes
games with my mind
or
Could you really be that beautiful.
My ears must lie.
No earthly voice could be so enchanting.
You bewitched my every thought to you
yet
have stolen my ability to dare voice them louder than a whisper.
Sometimes
I see you from different angles.
I question
would the back of your head rest snugly in the palm of my hand
as I draw you near to kiss the lips that beckon me.
I could easily carry you when you tire
If you let me
I could easily protect you while sleep
offer a shoulder for crying
an ear for listening
If you let me.
Sometimes
I see you from different angles
I wonder what it would be like.
If you let me.
