Reach Me

Ghosts from the past

 

You bring intensity to my mind

Still it reaches farther

You’ve shown my stomach butterflies

Swimming in their laughter

To reach through your eyes

A gaze that flows so deep

Draws me into a trance

I’d hardly even sleep

For my heart starts flowing free

The more your eyes touch mine

I feel them reaching deep inside

What is it that they find?

Could they go where I could not?

Oh, what this does to me

Take my heart my souls on fire

Just how to break free

Then leave me with a yearning

To be right there again

For I start to look some more

A little farther this time

To reach a little into you?

To hold anything back at all?

Surpass any feeling

I could ever recall

How you raise this life in me?

How you do this in my heart?

Leading me to feel once more

From what I did depart

Now longing for these feelings

That you have instilled to me

I crave the very thoughts of you

Lest you set me free

Beautiful! The warm remembrance of a lover is always kind to my heart. I love the flow of this piece. I kept picturing this warm breeze in the summer time on a porch as it's recited on a rocking chair from a man that would never forget.

Nice write.
