If you Love Me


You’ve got to believe
there are just two ways
for us to thrive
to be the others best friend
come take the hard
mixed with the soft.
A deepeness
that only only you love
could possibly
understand and know.
Every kiss from you
is a slow decline of time
I swear I swore
I knew,
but each new session
with you
is something
I’ve not felt before
impossible really.
Each time
I smell that perfume
I smell you
that intoxicating addiction
dragging me back
to ancient times
like I truly am
the Sufi-poet.
I can clearly see us
in our tent
the flaming desert
just inches away
you’re drenched
in incense and oils.
That curved belly dance
our favorite glittery top
light blue in color.
Oh the things
My eyes have seen
I cannot erase
when we were
in the midst of a rainstorm
in winter.
Feverish kissing
trying to quickly undo
all that was keeping Me
from you.
You’re all that I’ve wanted
what I’ve ever known
I can clearly feel
your love for Me
all I have to do
is keep on writing.
