I am having an affair of the heart
And I know not how it began
Where it received it’s birth
Or how it will eventually end.
I just know it send my spirit soaring
High into the sky each and every day
It makes me feel beautiful
To know that I am sharing
The love that is coming my way.
I am having an affair of the heart
Each time I look into your beautiful eyes
As you run your fingers through the hair on my chest
Through my loose unbuttoned shirt
Sending electric feelings
Up and down my spine.
I have touched your warm and secret places
I have laid close by your side through the night
We have stared deep
Deep into each other’s inner reaches
Held onto each other
Almost too tight.
Through it all I have to stop and wonder
Where it is you have been all my life
Through it all I have to wonder
Will I be able to keep you mine
Tomorrow when the sun rise’s and gives new life to the day
Will you be here … close to my side
When all the words are spoken in their special way
Will you want to share my life?
Or will you board your airplane
And silently fly away from me
Will you break my heart but once again
Will you leave me alone in misery.
So today I will sit and think of you
And how it was your breath came quickly
With each salty kiss placed upon my lips
Your body swaying before me
In it’s silent silhouette
The daylight hours will come and go
Eventually to the long lonely night
Silence
Very little rest
The memory of your whispered voice in my ear
This sudden emptiness.
All my lessons of life
I have learned rather well
This experience which consumed so many days of my days
As I stumbled blindly along
Love’s frustrating lane
How easy it was that I fell
Where to land is anyone’s guess.
Because you see,
I am having an affair of the heart
And I have no idea as to how it began
Where it received it’s birth
Or it’s eventual end.
