Floundering

When true love is not romantic it does not mean there is no dance.

I linger at the gate of your lifespace pausing before entering eventhough your eyes are inviting.
Pausing eventhough the sound of your voice speeds
up the beat of my heart.


Questioning always the reflection I see in you or is it just the
sensation aroused by my desire for you as you question who
makes the rules.
And feigning cowardice I say I don't understand what you are talking about.


But my heart is shouting I have searched for you all of my life.
It is too bad that finders are not keepers.
So I shall keep you locked in my secret place
where my love is always safe, returned, and comforting.
