Irresistible
Irresistible –
when you smile
and no one is around.
when the hair falls
over your brow
and you look at me
when there is no noise
in the other room
to tell me another is home
when I imagine me
running and diving
into you, my love
when I grab the counter
tightly in my grasp
holding me back–
Irresistible-
when you smile
and no one is around.
