What Could This Be

Oh, tell me, tell me what could this be?

Could this be love that enthralls me?
Not just any emotion,
but confidence, affection, and devotion.
Miles apart, days away,
but this love chiseled in my heart will stay.
Wanting to grasp you close to me, but knowing I can't...
oh why does this be caged?
Reaching out for you,
so close and knowing you want this too...
a love so rare and untether.
In the reserve of our alone,
you hold me dear.
Infatuation such as ours in every stroke and every kiss never known.
Whenever we are apart...
oh the pain in my heart.
A love too herculean to waste;
so far away yet close enough to taste.
Longing to be with you all the time;
hungry for your heart to be one with mine.
Escort me to your ocean;
Kiss me and fill me with your fragrant potion.
One to make me winded,
make me weak.
Rescued love,
you were sent from a glorified spirit above.
Whenever I glance at your eyes so beautiful,
I lose my senses and want to be retained by your love so plentiful.
Craving to be in your arms,
to be held so tight, yearning and praying with all my might.
You and me at once for all to see.
This, this, what could it be?
A love that captivates me.
