Closer Poem by Mlondi Mdluli

I see your soul moving closer to mine, but your feet
are standing still. In a fuzzy dream is where I saw you. Love is where I seeked you. Heaven is where I found you. My need for you burns. Come closer, fear not.

I see diamonds in your eye sockets. You are perfect, come closer. I would call you the ruler of my world, Only you had my world blown away with your breath taking beauty. Had no name for you except affection.

If you come closer I promise to keep you safe and warm. If you come closer I promise to keep my promise. If you come closer love will find us here. If you come closer, I won't break your heart. it will be my art. can you come closer?
