Crazily In Love With You

I'm going crazy for you.
My mind,
which was once empty,
once clear,
is filled with subliminal,
and vague,
scattered messages.

I don’t know what to do.
Your eyes,
reflect my every desire.
Warmth,
touches my delicate skin,
pale,
and so bitter cold.

I’m holding your photograph,
thinking of you,
your lips parting in words,
sweet,
as I shy mine into a line.
I’m shy,
and my heart opens.

I want to give it to you,
my firefly,
who glows in the palm of my hand.
My ship,
that is always there to carry me.
My flower field,
hugging my body as I greet the sky.

I go crazy when you break,
every tear,
forming cracks along your face,
hurts me,
more than I could ever take.

I want to kiss every tear,
very tenderly,
and stop all of your pain.
My love,
I want your hands in mine,

Your voice,
in my ears.

Your skin,
beneath my fingers.

I’m so terribly,
crazily,
in love with you.

    Thank you, Shannon! It's very different from all of my other poems, but I'm glad it turned out alright (:
