you.are.my.desire

This has nothing to do with you.
Except everything that it has to do with you.
My soul felt the shuffling of your feet,
And that place seemed a little less dark.
In fact, the shell encasing that place
Became vastly brighter as well.

Words passed,
And time after time,
I found myself
In awe of your [positive] space.
The space I would grow to cherish
As it took away (the negative beside me).

Even at (f i f t y) feet,
You have this tendency
To desaturate the world around you.
Black/on/white, white\on\black...
And there, to contrast it completely:
Your soft skin and [ANGEL]ic golden hair.

a fort(K)night passed.
and we danced.
the desire came over me
to press my l(I)ps against your(S).
to follow through would have been fatal.
in more way(S) than one.

The only reason I walked away,
Was to keep from darkening
My own home's doorstep past one o'clock.
I would have held you till the end of Time
Perfection in a ten-minute hug
Is hard to come by these days.

You're beautiful [on the outside].
I fell for you a long time ago.
And supressing these [feelings]
Is, by no means, a simple task.
His light shines through in you, a rare quality.
You're beautiful [on the inside].

[you.]
