Quiver

Folder: 
2003

I quiver as I watch you

As you devour my inner being

I shake from a simple movement

As you entangle my mind

I get a rush of life from a brush of your hand

Then I stumble, scramble, and shy

You make me so nervous with those piercing eyes

I want to know you

Trust you

Console you

I want to see what you are like behind the masks you wear

I want to trickle down your spine the way burst into my soul

With each passing smile you steal my breath

And my heart beats strange in my chest

I quiver with longing

Release

I want to tremble by your hand

And know you like I could ever know another

Author's Notes/Comments: 

After three years I quiver again, and it is the best feeling in the world.

this one isn't even that bad, a little off from where you are now but still not bad really, the part "I get a rush of life from a brush of your hand
Then I stumble, scramble, and shy"
was the best part of all of it and it makes me happy :)

What a passionate passage... I could feel your longing.. your desire... you hit this one right where it hurts... In the heart...
