I’ve loved you
Ever since the Apple Trees
Blossomed
And the smell filled me
Up
With a deep longing
To hold You
To kiss every line
on your ambrosial
Face
There’s no more
Space
In me
I’m no longer my own
Self
Love buried in a field of
Apples
Your eyes
Supine
Begging the heavens
To let this moment
last
Forever
