Poem: "Taken"

"Taken"

This feels like a dream
the sun rises
its glorious light
signals the beginning

you're standing by the window
silently watching the restless waves
as they crash against the waiting shore

I get up and go to the window
you smile as I take your hand
and you put your arm around me

moments pass
as your heart
throbs
nearly skipping
a beat

you gaze at me
longingly
as we kiss
your lips taste
sweet

lest our fervent embrace
leads us down
unknown paths

let my devotion
be our guide
to light the way

hold me close
tell me that you desire
what it is
I so desperately offer.
