I want to be a virus.
so i can live under your skin, swim softly through your blood.
to rush through your heart, feel your veins squeeze tight around me
pushing and pulling me
about your body.
free reign to travel from your head to your toes
trace along your finger prints, down the shafts of your hair
to be apart of you, entangled,enveloped forever.
The way you are in me.

Tall or I am such a shorty
YOUR So Tall I wonder how, if I could, Kiss you
would i s-t-r-e-t-c-h up on my tip toes to pull at you
Bouncing up for a quick peck
would I start a collection of Heels to bring me closer to your face
A box may work but how would I carry it all day, or can you kiss me only when we're seated turned toward one another for easy access or would
you
bend and swoop to kiss me quick. an extended press may cause a crick in your back and a twinge in my neck, or As I wish and more so prefer
would you sweep me into your arms and pull me close and UP with strong arms to KISS me properly
How easily it goes now
the flow now,
of words. It dripped a while, like
paint on a canvas then
quickened and streamed
still h-alt-ing,
JumPy like a rapid but now so...
eeeaassyyy now so
~smooth~
it comes flowing from my brain
to my hand
to the paper,
to lay on the paper like a swimmer
floating
on the sea
a sea of college rule paper.
Bring me up!
call me to your mind
to your attention. FOCUS!
I am tired of being cast aside for a more Pretty Thing shiny and
golden in your eye. Take Note!
Am I not here in your perephrial vision?
Turn your head and let your eye gaze and linger on me
like a jewel or some shaped piece of gold or silver
will I not become more Polished and Bright under sweet attention.
I can glow as well
I can shimmer and glitter
just...Turn your head, your eye, your mind and watch me
SHINE
it must have been an earthquake
I felt the world shake
it came a little after
i thought it would be faster
my reaction time must be terrible
i took time to be presentable
which you seemed to find so kissable,
huggable, loveable
i walked you to the elevator didn't feel a thing
but later
the earth caught up with me and
as you blew the last kiss
me and the world shivered along in excitement
instantaneusly
I think it must have been an EARTHQUAKE
oh is it raining outside?
the sun seems to shine from your
face. the tears from heaven neither chill or dampen your warm embrace keeping me from the cold rain
your eyes like the happy spring blue sky
banish the grey clouds overhead
your smile like sunshine lights your
face and warms mine.
BEAMING
but so like the rain you are
A steady pouring of affection
how charmingly cool and so easily collected
you are in the curved
palm of my hand
your presence like a soft sweet shower after Days of burning summer heat each kind word
soft glance waters my love
for
On the Ettiquete of leaning by emptynotebook, literature
Literature
On the Ettiquete of leaning
What ARE you doing?
with that gleam in your eye, standing so close leaning over me like a cat about to pounce while i shrink against the wall like a mouse
we've stopped in the hall and I am very well trapped, I can't go back,
i can't go forward for fear that if I draw any nearer to you
all will be lost
so i wait while you look down at me twisting my fingers and you smile
I frown
and you make sure to brush against me as you move away
I go straight to bed.
