Shadows Dancing

Shadows are dancing across the page
My hand and pen flying in a rage
Flickers from the lamp light
Like flowers with the words I write

Subtle reflections mirrored in my eyes
To say “I love you!” my rhyme tries
My hand tracing contours of my affection
Rending warm feelings coming from my direction

It's these lips of mine are longing to kissed
Making me write the poetry I make exist
Falling in silence like leaves in the wind
These ephemeral words of my love I send
