Near You

You have pushed me

pulled me

moved me from the staid

to the exciting.

Watching

my head thrown back

hair tossed by the wind

I wrap my legs around your waist

my screams of delight

echo in your ear.

Never have I felt so alive

never so connected

as I do with you.

Those who do not understand

watch as we speed by

uncertain what to say.

Exhilirating

joyous

happy

all this and more

is felt when I am near you.

Sept. 8/18
