I Do It For You

There is nowhere so safe
As your arms,
Nothing so smooth
As your lips,
No one as perfect as you.

Each syllable you speak
Breaks against my ears like
Waves on a beach,
And I hear every one
As a whisper of truth.

Every touch makes me hot,
Every kiss turns me cold,
You lips make me spin
While your hands
Hold me still.

The days fly by,
Drops of water falling
From clear blue skies
To soak my hair and
Leave diamonds on my eyelashes,
Each leaving a memory of a word
From you.

A myriad of pictures
Settle through my soul,
Straining out an essence
Of love,
A potent brew that makes me
Heady and dizzy
Whenever I feel you touch my skin.

I am drunk,
Intoxicated by your
Very presence,
The scent of love and fate
And speed and time
Hanging in the air.

You won't push me,
I am the one to break the boundaries,
Yank you by your collar into a world of secret passion
And warm summer days.

But I do it for you.
