My sweet love

Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words. Plautus

This is you

without whitespace

or question mark,

I always will find you

in a period or an accent,

my tongue is tasting your name

in consonants and vowels,

I’m waltzing you round and round

and the sweetness of your mouth

is so soft in sentences,

I only translate it on a piece of paper

in a poem or that song

that keeps singing in my head

all day long.

I enjoyed the poem.
"I’m waltzing you round and round
and the sweetness of your mouth
is so soft in sentences,"
Sometime simple words are all we need. Thank you for sharing the amazing poem for love.
