Love Sick

I am listening to your heartbeat

As my head gently lays upon your breast

 

The throbbing emotions within me

Keeping time with it’s every beat.

 

As I listen to your life’s blood

Pass through your body

 

I imagine each corpuscle

Is filled with a tiny bit of my love

 

As it courses through your veins

To infect every part of your body

Like a disease

 

Until it finally reaches your brain

Where it is slowly absorbed into each cell

 

So that your every thought

Is now only of my love.
