Spell Bound

I’m helpless at your gaze

for those dark eyes have held me captive.

I’m lost in thought for days,

remembering the warmth of your soft skin.

Losing sense of self

reminiscing about you.

Daydreaming of the future

that you’d give meaning to.

They say lioness hunt,

it’s no wonder you’ve ambushed my heart.

My woman of renown,

ferocious but yet calm.

Wit tempered with innocence,

the coalescence of empathy and beauty.

I’m held captive by your smile

as I watch your lips unfold.

You’ve set my heart aflame

and caused my love to bloom.

How I wish I could admire you forever,

to watch you grow and glow,

the drop that births the sea,

the ocean that fills me.
