Beguiled

That sweet intangible that

Draws you near, keeps you close,

Makes your heartbeat quicken just a bit

As eye meets blushing eye.

Stripped of ego and of will you

Linger just a bit too long,

Making intent obvious to anyone who passes by.

Lost from logic, miles gone by,

Caring not where footfalls stride.

Want to bask in sweet surrender,

Covers drawn on every side.

Tell me you’ll be mine forever.

Make my mind stop rushing wild.

Heartstrings strumming

So in tune,

So enraptured,

So beguiled.
