Just A Reflection.

I come closer, drawn in.

Deep behind your eyes I see

always a mirrored

reflection of me.

Lips kiss, such heat

a rush of blood,

the taste, so sweet.

I hold your face,

a lover's touch.

This man I see

I love too much.

I drop my hands

let them fall.

Replace your picture

on the wall.

This man I love,

yet cannot have.
