To love me

It's so simple to love me; 

just being beside me,

feeling the warmth of your hands,

your kisses melting on my lips

such as my letters melt

between ink and paper 

 

To love me is to share the prelude of my longings, 

your feverish caresses between kisses and dew, 

to see my dreams reflected in your eyes;

to hand me a rose, 

to whisper an I love you

 

To love me is so simple,

surprising me at night,

slowly unfolding my body

with the warmth of your gaze,

exploring my sea and my waves


To love me is to feel the voice of my heart,

the melody that sings to you, 

a simple and pure surrender,

an uttered word that would say it all

although it said nothing

 

To love me is so simple…
