Three

Do the uncertainties of life ever haunt you
      like they do to me?

They say the possibilities are endless
   the sky is the limit
   and dreams come true

But the possibilities are chilling
   the sky is dark and
   I have nightmares

Two

I am lovestruck
or is it
     lovesick?

When you are near
my heart swells
       but
When you are not
 my fingers
  are cold
 my arms are
   Empty

But next to you

I'm dizzy
    in your
 galaxies
   oceans
      eyes

I'm feverish
 with kisses
   daydreams
      you.

I am lovestruck
or is it
     lovesick?

One

My love for you
is like the first flutters
of consciousness
on a Sunday morning

the patter of rainfall
outside your window

the scent of a fresh
pot of coffee
batch of cookies
beginning

the ache of laughter
in your belly

and the wonder     sparkling
in your eyes
when you comprehend
                           the   stars

subtle, quiet
but deeply
utterly human
and endlessly
beautiful
