Crush

Crush. Infatuation. An intense usually transitory fondness or admiration. I love being captivated and fascinated! Usually the fondness or admiration deteriorates as I get to know someone. It can take minutes or years. In this case, it took a few weeks for intelligence to be revealed as cunning and for sincerity to be revealed as manipulation. Only rarely does the crush - the enchantment - fade away leaving a true and passionate love in its place.


Smooth and strong

words

falling from your mouth

tenderness dropping into my ears

like a warm rain

falling from chosen clouds

decorating the sky


A smile

like the beautiful sun

warming my heart

and making my body moist


I will adore you

gaze upon you like a beautiful

unpredicatable cloud


But like the sky

I cannot touch you

Like the clouds

I cannot hold you


Only admire and wait

for a drop of rain to touch my tongue

or a ray of sun to warm my face
