My bones

Kaytee

Free verse
Your whispers of love flowed into my soul and into my blood. The words ran through my veins and awakened by heart.

The excitement of you quickened my pulse and ran to my skin exhilarated by your touch. Your eyes, your piercing eyes saw into my core.  I had to look away for fear of being seen.

I thought this love would last forever but I am forgotten by you and now you live in my bones.

    Wow! This is so bitter, sweet, bittersweet, sad and romantic all at once. I'll tell you the line that tore straight into my soul: "Your eyes, your piercing eyes saw into my core. I had to look away for fear of being seen." - I mean, brilliant! Had to look away for fear of being seen??? WHY did I not write this line, Kaytee???
