I want you to be the morning light to touch my cheeks when I open my eyes in the morning.
I want you to be the light that allows for my eyes to see in the darkness.
I want for your fragrant and delicate fingers to enkindle fire in my soul each time you touch it.
I want for your mouth to seek the warmth in mine, for your tongue to frolic through my skin as you taste it.
I want for your eyes to drape my body with mist as the rain would each time it trickles down our rooftop.
I want for your infinite laughter to envelop my flesh with longing and mystery.
I want for your smile to timidly hide beneath the corner of my palms as I reach for your face so that I can bring it closer.
I want for your body to linger to mine after we make love.
I want to be the air that you take in and let out.
I want to be the sunlight that fills your future with hope.
I want to be the rain that washes over your uncertainties.
I want to be the earth that your solemn feet would walk upon, each time you wander to search for yourself.
I want you to be the moon that rises and falls in my horizon.
I want you to be the bosom that cradles me to sleep.
I want you to be the flower that blossoms in my dreams eternally.
I want you to be the clouds that race through my skies.
I want you to be the wind that carries all my prayers.
I want you to be the life that fills my flesh.
I want you to be the one.
