A Simple Poem For My Love

What are you doing?
I bet you're reading these words
Over my shoulder

The candle is lit
Lock engaged and invite sent
So why would you not?

My heart beats faster
My head tilts slightly toward you
I can feel your hand

Not much longer now
The hourglass fights
It's not effective

For each step backwards
I reset and leap forward
Your arms awaiting

Enjoy yourself now
As I waste away their time
While biding my own

I'd love to see you
Materializing here
Cheeks a telling red

Would you like to bet?
I am just a fool in love
Your wager, your stakes
