That Book

I wish I were that book

That your glorious eyes greedily feast upon

And you could drink me into your brain

One line at a time

As though I were a TV image

And you could contemplate

The things my body has done

Where my feet have trod

Sweet lies my lips have told

Ponder what we could do together

We could live out our dreams

For surely your own truth

Outshines the fiction of another

I really enjoyed reaing your poem. It was short and sweet. To tell you the truth, it inspired me. So I thank you and know I will read some more of your work.
