Analysis of Wrapped Around Your Thing
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Hooked I am.
Trapped!
And satisfying a denying need to be caught.
Wrapped around,
That unsuspecting thing of yours.
Brought to me to bring,
A hope tossed away.
Only you could ignite.
Making me excited overnight with delight.
Leaving my emotions,
Both stunned and excited about it.
That thing you bring that has left me singing.
With a joy and happiness,
Never before this way I felt to feel.
From the first day we met I knew was real.
As if magical our chemistry matched.
Wrapping us both,
In an unexplained to remain attraction.
By surprise to make me rise each morning.
Laying beside you while I await anticipating,
That look in your eyes meeting mine.
Without words to say or a need to hear heard.
To know,
Whatever it is that has us wrapped up...
In this thing of yours and mine together.
Forever to never,
let this feeling we both have go!
