Samy's Poetry

The Way I Want to Love You

Lying in bed for hours,

just looking into your eyes,

not saying a sound,

while you hold me tight.

This is the way

I want to love you,

for the rest of my life.

Holding your hand

in line at the store,

laughing like we are the only ones there.

This is the way

I want to love you,

for the rest of my life.

Sitting on the back porch

watching for shooting stars,

huddled close for your warmth.

This is the way

I want to love you,

for the rest of my life.

Kissing you every night

before I fall asleep,

dreaming of tomorrow together.

This is the way

I want to love you,

for the rest of my life.
