Honeymoon Italy Poem by Rob Lamberton

The day our eyes met, our senses sailed through all the corners of Italy, meeting place, country of love, nest of sweetness, unforgettable place, it was just a touch, a brush, a kiss that began the story face to face of our love nest, a place that had a life of its own and complete when I was flesh of your flesh, bone of your bones and it is there where the sky was witness and I was lost and surrendered to your lap and the world stopped in moments to unite your life and mine in a single being, I can not erase you from my life, I do not want to erase your kisses from my skin, I can not erase the moments where you gave me the sweet honey of your delicious fruit, the warmth of your sweet hands no, I can not erase when my lips and yours joined and I opened my eyes to overflow again and again in your love, I can not erase the moments that I woke up at night and felt your body close to mine, I can not erase the moments that carelessly yours I stole you in glances of admiration of how you are and everything you did for me, you enthralled me in a thousand and one ways, if there is a genius in love, that would be you. And yes, sometimes you seemed satisfied, and no, because you always came back for more, I can't lie that I felt like I grabbed the sky with my hands and now here in Argentina I feel an emptiness because I long for your presence, your kisses, caresses, your hands, your breath close to mine like life itself, Italy became too small to contain our love, I pray to heaven, to the Creator so that this love does not become more distant but perpetuates in time and in the present history of our love!
