If I could spill the words to make you love me… I would

Onto the floor in front of you…

Up on to your bare feet and the ratted hem of your jeans.

 

If I could paint the picture of a perfect us… I would

Brilliantly colored and outlined in blood…

Sweat and tears caressing my canvas ever so softly.

 

If I could cup you face in my hands… I would

Covering it with soft kisses and nuzzling your nose…

Tasting your sweet lips and swallowing your tongue.

 

If I could hold you close… I would

A warmth that soothes my very soul…

My heart beating only for you.
