Waiting For You

I watched your shadow in the darkness Gliding above the surface of the grass Touching lower tree branches gently With soft wings-like fingertips I sensed your breath approaching my lips Opening my mouth for anticipated kiss But you flew by as if you did not see me Standing in the shadow behind a tree Waiting for you quietly every night While getting lost in shadowy electric Dance of intertwining swaying twigs In the gentle wind of magic night I saw your face floating towards me In the boat of puffy white clouds On a bright midsummer day Gazing into my longing eyes Gently sealing them with breath And moving slowly away As if you did not see me once again I watched you bathing in the Greenish waters of the lake With waterfall behind the mountain Droplets were caressing your hair Your face, your mouth, your skin Sparkly jewels of the water From the foamy cloud above Landed on your eyelashes And looked like fallen stars I approached you and touched Your arm that was holding White magnolia bloom next To your sensually open mouth And I kissed your lips in daze The scent of the bloom entered My nostrils slowly rising to my brain Melting me into a ball of sensations I kissed you all night long drowning In my own unbearable imaginary Burning closing on me passion When the sun squeezed inside Through the open window next morning I woke up in my bed touching white sheets Desperately searching for you But you were gone through the window That I forgot to close again
