Under the influence

Amnesia

There is something so Devine about getting to indulge in the person I came to know you as. I watched you walk right by me daily , those soft features grabbing my attention swiftly and delicately. When we first drifted towards each other I asked you what you thought of me , the reply you gave me knocked the air from out my lungs. Only you and I know the words you uttered to me on that sunny afternoon.

You have been flowers , you have been trees slowly releasing oxygen , breathing life into my lifeless soul through your own form of photosynthesis. We'd hang out late into the night , deeply engrossed in this new thing that we have discovered , absorbed by some tiny spec of love that had somehow formed.

I noticed how you drifted towards me , I noticed the way your thighs would press up against my own , I noticed how you avoided any type of distance or space and filled up my senses with your warmth. Your eyes lit up every time I played a song these un evolved minds of your friends could not comprehend. You know how my eyes softened at the sound of you singing , that voice of yours causing chills to run down my spine.

Oh God when you dance , how your hips move as those eyes glow with flirtation slowly seducing me like I know you adore. I have conversed with you like no other , you have aroused my being in ways that no other female has done.

I deserved to discover a love as rushed and specific as yours was and you deserved to feel a love as soft and patient as mine has been. And now the curtains must close , you and I have played our parts. You have given me amnesia , you have helped me cleanse this heart.
