Love Found Me

Love found me

in the heat of the night,

where there was the warmth of passion, dreams… and aphrodisia…

when the platinum sizzling sun

surrendered to the sparkling cinnamon sunset,

the ocean could not contain

the intensity of the aromatic affection.

When you came around,

everything that I thought I had found

was cut short like…

My breath…

by cupid’s arrow,

piercing my bone marrow,

and my vision narrows

to a precise focus…

spiritual hypnosis.

The sensation was authentic,

and I just pretended

to not be speechless,

but the truth spoke volumes.

You are the torrential rainfall

descending into my desert sands…

soothing first,

quenching thirst…

the seed of my soul,

until I have the strength of an earthquake

with a Labrador Retriever’s heart.

And I love that you care about my wants and needs…

and that you wear your heart on your sleeve…

Oh!

…And that you have a tremendous sweet tooth,

because that’s my weakness too…

All truth…

I am hooked on “vanilla”.

The love that I have for you exceeds my love affair with ice cream,

and my heated fling with chocolate covered praline…

So please know…

That I love you…

even more than yesterday… and the day before.

I even love you more

Than cuddle time in bed…

And the rubbings you give to this hard head…

And I mean what the hell I just said.

Love found me

in the heat of the night,

where there is the warmth of passion, dreams, and aphrodisia…

And the serenity that I feel at the depths of  my spirit,

nothing else can compare, nothing can kill it.

You are my missing rib…

And I will remain eternally overjoyed that

Love Found Me.
