Feeling Your Breath Upon Me

Feeling Your Breath Upon Me...... 12.2.13 Feeling your breath upon me as you lay sleeping holding you close never wanting this moment to end, I remember our first embrace smiling wide newness a refreshing drink. Are you dreaming of me am I still the same man you remember? the one you gave your beautiful heart to and walked the silent woods talking like familiar strangers, without hesitation. I have always loved you despite mistakes made travelling this steep path we call life my heart has been yours since I gazed in your loving eyes, brown and rich. Fragile our union has always been and will always be it has been the one constant, the one thing I can hold onto grasp with emotion and heartfelt strength, never to wane for thee. Protecting us I feel the warmth of our love wrapping us up in her blanket from the cold winds of life's constant wrath, souls joined forever from above. Regrets having none since we began our love affair you are the beacon that guides me through the night loud with minions screaming, seeking to keep me in their grasp. Days of listening to your thoughts rich in creative detail I smile loving you like none before, nights of passion seemed endless as we loved our bodies becoming one the world was here, was ours if only for a moment. Crying, laughing, screaming, dying choice is made to remain in thy garden close to your bosom for rest of my days, being here calmness is found peace attained among the roses. Wanting to be with you always and might you feel the same? without your smile warm life will have lost its meaning, an emptiness unwillingly found. I perish the idea of a solemn walk alone, take my hand our journey through the mist, falling rain is not yet complete my love, my dark haired lass. ©2013 David Jerry Mitchell
