It Has To Be You

At almost thirty
You have me speechless
Captivated
Wanting only you

At almost beyond it
– Old enough
To know better –
I believe again

In magic
In sidelong glances
And shy smiles
In holding hands
And love letters
And lines that rhyme

You find me crazy
Wanting – lust-filled –
Your touch
The scent that is you
All over me

And a kiss
Or two – or ten –
Grabbed, hurriedly,
Or slowly, passionately
Long, lasting
Or quick, biting

At almost thirty
It shouldn’t be this way
But it is

It has to be you.
