Bedecked Expectations

Updated: Mar 19


When I chose you, it didn’t feel like a choice

My heart heralded your arrival in beating voice

Then laid down its seeker’s crown in recognition

Insistent in its position, posed to respect

Your smile’s beguiling pleasantry, mine to accept

  

The addictive chemistry in your refined kiss

Tastes of renewal wine, from warm gauntlet lips

I thirstily drink in your lavish affection

My tongue savors your flavor as a felicitous host

An ethereal entity, a playful dancing ghost


You are a soft melody that lilts inside of me

A long-lost song stuck on play, repeatedly

Where the chorus sings a passionate portrayal

Yet the lyrics change in persuasion of the day

To accommodate our emotional foray


In communion, within my temple of thoughts

I embrace the beauty of your love’s proven loft

Your spirit lifts, deliberately decorated 

In loving colors that soar for impressive view

These bedecked expectations enticed me to you
