Foxtrot

I keep giving her the sign
To tell her she's mine

I stare at her enchanting pink lip
As she takes every other sip

I mark her with my fingertips,
On her soft, generous hips

I tell her she belongs with me
And with her a future, I see

She has an aura so bright
But her cute small height

When she leans close near me
The top of her head is all I can see

I grasp her hands so tight,
And feel her touch so light

I swim in the ocean of her eyes
And we sit there staring till the sunrise

After our every fight
She still texts me goodnight

I place my lips on her cheeks
And then remember it for weeks

I place a hand on her shoulder and squeeze
Until I am sure that her mind is at ease

I seat her smoothly on my lap
And her gentle forehead, I tap

She strokes my arm every time
I tell her that I wrote us a rhyme

We kiss each other for hours
Everytime I bring her flowers

She admires my bulging vein
As we sit calmly in the rain

I hear her call out my name
As we play our silly game

I like her loose hair strands
Which I often fix with these hands

From the side, she steals glances
And then, with joy, she dances

She says she can't walk straight
And so brushes shoulders with her mate

I know she tells me those lies
Because I like to read her eyes

In the end, she says she has to go
And that is why she then feels low

I, too, miss her after that
I miss how close we sat

She tears up if I get mad,
She just can't see me sad

She says we were meant to be
And I just smile and say " gee "


Yeah, she does talk a lot
After all she is My Foxtrot
