My Heart I Bare

The moment I saw you, I wanted you to be mine.
You spoke to me then; that's when I knew it was time.

My turn to be happy, to have fun, and to share.
My chance to be with someone who would truly care.

Your sparkling eyes speak volumes to me.
Your dazzling smile makes me weak in my knees.

You cause trembling in me that's uncontrollable and untamed.
I have shivers of pleasure whenever I hear your name.

Thoughts of you bring a quick smile to my face.
I see you before me when I drift off into space.

You're the man in my dreams each and every night.
You're the only one I long to have hold me tight.

You make me feel comfortable, special, and warm,
As if I'm protected, and safe from all harm.

Your gentle soul draws me as a moth to a flame.
The question that remains: Do you feel the same?

This poem I wrote to show you I care.
In essence, this is my heart I bare.
