By Pandora

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What I want is.... ....to view the sunset from within your arms and       still be there to witness it rise ....to watch you approach from a distance and know       that I am you destination ....to taste upon my lips the salt of your skin after       the physical release of passion ....to laugh together uproariously at somethin no       one else understands ....to know your history as well as I now my own ....to span the distance with more than my heart ....to give you more than just my words What I need is.... ....your assurance that all is well ....your presence in more than just my thoughts       and dreams ....to know that my heart has a home with you ....to hear your voice just once before it's too late What I know is.... ....only how I feel and nothing more Written April 9th, 2002 © on Apr 08 2002 09:20 PM PST   10 • 0
