DISTRACTIONS
            

Thoughts of you distract me
excite me, confuse me.
You put me to sleep and then awaken me
causing my breath to quicken.
Your unknown fragrance trails me,
a puppy looking for eternal,
yet often, elusive comfort.
Your shadow follows mine, follows me
constantly present to tingle and delight.
Have we met before
it feels so that we have.
Will we ever be?
For why do our distant movements
bring such pleasure, so tantalizing, so erotic.
Are we really apart?
Perhaps our minds have sought one another
Perhaps they know what we have yet to learn.
Maybe you have captured "my" mind,
do you care?
