A heavy sigh falls from my lips as I feel myself surrender to you,

Sweet surrender has left me as vulnerable as the morning dew,

As morning sun collects the dew along with the essence of me,

You accept my love as it penetrates the air that we cannot see,

Love is felt traveling though the air as it engulfs my every fiber,

Tingling sensations that grow to become love’s flaming ember,

Small needles of love’s delight that grow as they force through,

Should the blood within your frame have need I give all to you,

You found me when I found you the change in me was profound,

Manhood overtook the boy it seems I was improvement bound,

The way you look, the way you look at me put feelings in the air,

A deep gasp took in the air of an “air of love” as I fell right there,

The look on your face as I floundered in the room trying to speak,

Did I say that I love you on first sight or did I appear to be weak,

As I became the morning dew the beauty of you collected me in,

Vaporous molecules of me awaiting for your love of me to begin,

Five decades plus five years didn’t move in step with Father Time,

I awaken each morning in prayer asking for more time in a rhyme,

Rhyming prayers of time asking for more time to spend loving you,

After all these years angel you’re still beautiful all the way through,

Still I sigh upon seeing nudity of you and I find it very hard to speak,

Whispers flowing across my stuttering lips is part of your mystique,

I walk through a mysterious fog of my own creation inside my mind,

Touch of you woke essence of me to become a part of you entwined,

Love is felt traveling though the air as it engulfs the two of us,

Tingling sensations that state our love has become superfluous,

Small needles of loving delight are flowing in full through we two,

Everything in flow within my frame says I’ll always be loving you.
