Literature Text

Your beauty shone and has blinded me.
I am satisfied with what I've seen.
To die after hearing you voice but once,
Would be to die happily and at peace.
If I never were able to touch after
Only brushing your hand, it'd be okay.
I desire only to drink of your lips but one time,
And my thirst would be quenched.
Come close so that I might breathe the delicate air that carries your scent.
But alas, I know not your name, so I can't call it for your lyrical response.
I know not your face, so that I might gaze upon its beauty hour after hour.
I am unable to experience the softness of your skin and the lines about your hands.
I have never gotten close enough to catch a breeze of the scent I so desire.
For all I know, my lips and skin will never deliquesce at the brush of your mouth over mine.
But to see you once . . . .
a happier poem

this is lovely, rosecoal. it seems that someone's magic has touched and captured you, your life. and you need not see that person in real life to know the beauty that person radiates, to know the scent, the softness of the skin... these words, they seem to float around you and embrace you with love and renewed life.
