BRANDISHING CHARM *

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

in lieu of heaven
I have you to woo me
such a subtle loving seducer
you have become
visions of your eyes
with such a captivating expression
how such warm brown orbs
enchant me to succumb
to your particular brand of charm
but your charm is not flawed
and empty of honest intent
you are a man of words
a gentleman of favor
a creative soul
filled with such tender lament
giddy are my ears to better
hear
the every nuance of
your crisp, husky,
accented voice
as you speak words
others have barely even
read about
while you draw me farther and
farther into your quiet
further away from
all the static and noise
the rest of the world
seems so utterly
addicted to
I just thank God
that you alone now
are my addiction...........
