You And The Night Poem by Wilfred Mellers

The air is electrified

The moon shines for me

Flowers now bloom

The night becomes cool

Life becomes overjoyed



My heart beats like a drum

My pulse races like a dragster

My skin begins to moisten

Heat ignites the fire



My passion burns

My eyes become cloudy

My vision blurs

My legs become unsteady

My feet will not keep me up anymore



You are so far away

I want to draw you near

Longing for your embrace

Feeling the heat from your body

I break out in a cold sweat



My desire is to have you

You I obsess about

Can't get you out of my mind

You occupy my every thought

I need you more than life



You are my heart

You are my soul

You are the light

You are my universe

You are everything



I love your fragrance

I love the way you speak

I love the clothes you wear

I love the shoes on your feet

I love the styling of your hair



All I can see is you

You are my world

Without you there is nothing

There is no me without you

You are my destiny



I want to live inside your world

I want to see all that you see

I want to hear all that you hear

I want to know all that you know

I want to feel all that you feel



I can't sleep anymore

I can't eat anymore

I won't live if you are not alive

I want no other but you

You are my true love



On turbulent seas, you are the calm

Your love will keep me afloat

You are the shining beacon in my night

Your love brings me to safer shores

With you, I feel a thousand feet tall



I want to swim in your ocean

I want to dive into your seas

I want to drown in your love

I want to be swallowed whole by you

I want you to consume me entirely



I want to breathe only your air

I want to be suffocated by your love

I want to draw my last breath knowing your love

If my world ends, I want you by my side

And when I pass my last vision will be of you
