Silently in Love
Eyes, deep as the Nile.
Lips, so angrily tempting.
Mind, an expansion of knowledge,
That pulls me closer than
Earth's gravitational pull.
Your smile, so coy
As your eyes crinkle.
Your laughter,
The sound of an angelic symphony.
Your words through my ears,
To my mind,
To my heart
Blood rushing, pumping
Through me.
Hands uncontrollably quivering,
Cheeks, brightening red
Flustered, unable to meet your gaze
Grasping for air whenever
You are near,
I am silently in love with you.
