essence

The way you smile and look into me
When we are thinking alike
When I am hurting
Or when you are

At sunrise
Sunset
Alone
Or when we are swallowed
By the crowd

Feeling like a lay down
A fumble in ruffled sheets
Or in a rustle of leaves
At the ocean

Taking a walk
Surf and sun
It's warmth
Fueled by your reflection

My mind stands still
Finally giving way
To the strength and beauty and pure love
That is your essence
