You Melt Me

 

You Melt Me

 

Beautifully brilliant

     are the enchanted beams of light

    that stream from your precious

         spirited eyes this night.

 

Pleasing and fondly familiar,

     we direct our friendly fire,

    to where passionate hearts greet

         again to reveal even more desire.

 

When I see your face I know

     my love’s tempting lips are near,

    professing it crystal clear that

         love that is true will persevere.

 

Your lips that love to sip and savor,

     flavor my every sense each day,

     holding you close as we celebrate

          our almost innocent play.

 

And when you smile you know

     that you melt my heart,

    just exactly like that day

        we remember from the very start.

 

My pledge that I make today,

     is to propose my love anew,

    to promise once again to

         faithfully cherish and shelter you.

 

 

A note from Chris

If you are a music fan, you will most likely figure out which tune helped

inspire my original poem “You Melt Me”.  There are two references in

the poem to the lyrics of one of my most favorite songs.  The photos that

I chose to pair with the poem might give you a clue as well.

 

If you need more help with identifying the song you can scroll down

below the social media version of “You Melt Me” and watch

the official music video from 2010.
