the thought of seeing you
makes my heartbeat
beat stronger
every time
the light in your eyes
brightens my heart
illuminating my
world
the way you look at me
pierces straight through
into my
soul
the touch of your hand
creates fire that
only you
extinguish
the time we are apart
fills my mind with
longing for
you



I like it! Humans without emotions are nothing but empty body. Congrats Kristi on having your poetry on a new brand
I love this. It is a simple yet powerful piece. I admit I had to read it several times. Many times simplicity is the has the most powerful impact. Excellent Job!
Emily Dickinson and Elizabeth Barret Browning have nothing on you, Kristi.
Clearly you are a woman in love.
The poem is free of the artificiality a person faking love might offer.
This is the real thing spoken in the real way only a heart joined with another understands.
