I Covet Poem by Adam Latham

I dare not tell her, dare not say
I watch her almost every day,
She stole my heart and does not know
How much I truly love her so.

Behind the safety of the glass,
The window that she rushes past,
I'm always careful not to stir
The curtains hiding me from her.

I snatch a glance or maybe two
As quickly she glides into view,
My hands grow clammy just to see
My one true love in front of me.

My heart beats faster as my eyes
Dance on her midriff and her thighs,
I take a breath and exhale loud,
It fogs the glass in a hot cloud.

Such joy is the imagined bliss
Of just one moment, just one kiss,
To hold her firmly in my arms,
Unable to resist my charms.

To touch her, smell her, make her mine,
Sends sublime shivers down my spine,
I know she'd love me just the same
If only she could know my name.

I'll make her understand my love,
This angel sent from up above,
Perhaps tomorrow I'll say hi
When once again she races by.
