Living within him

to be so attracted to someone that you hope to be able to inhabit this person for a fraction of an instant...

Living within him is a privilege bestowed

For a fraction of an instant

My pulse travels the same distance

In the same space as his essence

Hears from within his resonance

His kind, witty eloquence

Observes reality around his existence

Through his lenses; colors in abundance

Enlightened by sparks of the intellect's circuitry

Powered by a masculine chemistry

My soft shell dwells in effusions

Within his frame broad and sturdy

A sanctuary from worldly confusions

To focus this instant on his entirety

Louisa,
This is a truly beautiful expression of romantic attraction, and very eloquent. You describe what you find attractive in this man, and how it would feel to dwell within his very core with wonderfully descriptive passages. Thank you for posting this lovely poem!

Thank you so much for your appreciation Richard...
Your poem "Your Spell" is equally touching and powerful - I've reread it (the one where you revised the fourth stanza). Being hooked and attracted is a beautiful sensation - it's a fullness and emptiness in the mind and heart all at once.
Wishing you a nice day ahead : )
