How Close is Love?

You pass near me
and I catch the fragrance
of your skin. If I were blind
forever, I would know the scent
of your love.

You pass near me
and I feel the jolt of your energy.
I do not need eyes to tell
me you are here for the stream
of love that you send out embraces me.

If you were far away,
you would still be close by
for you visit my thoughts
leaving tiny kisses on my lips.

I draw a breath and feel the
flutter of my heart as it senses
your presence, always with me in a
steady pulse of love. For this I am
grateful; I am at peace, I am fulfilled.
