Poetry

Love

Can I just hold you in my arms

And sing you a song

So poorly it would make you laugh

And paste a smile onto your face

Hold you close

Tell you I love you most

Fall asleep with you in the sun

I'm sitting here alone

At first patiently waiting

Now pacing

And searching for your face in every crowd

I may not know you

But oh how do I want to

It's not the being single that hurts

It's the lack of warmth in my heat

To hold and be held

To kiss and be kissed

I have never felt

That's all I really want

To fall asleep

With someone curled up next to me

To hear the lub-dub of there hear

And the warmth pulsing through their skin

Every night I fall aleep

Thinking about the missing heat

Of a body next to me
