Breathless

 

You leave

me

breathless,

silently standing

motionless

except for the

pounding

rhythm

in my

chest.

 

I confess

to every star

that will listen,

that my eyes have

never witnessed a miracle

until the day you stepped in.

My heart has never beaten

as much as when

I hear your mind

and the way you

think.

 

I’m breathless,

just gasping for air.

My soul soaring

away

and I’m unaware

of feeling the

wind on my face

because the only

care I have

is to hear

the things you

declare, the life you hold within.

 

I confess to the moon

as she glistens, so bright

that I have

never felt so light,

until here and now.

I’d never

walked on air,

but now my feet

no longer know

the ground is there.

And the light I hold inside

is totally eclipsed

by the love

that lives there.
