Love Poem: Alive

Alive

when i run my fingertips up your arms to your shoulders
and draw your head down to mine
when my heart quickens at your bare back as you cross the room
when I kiss you, just a little bit to tease you on
when your eyes sparkle with an inside joke
when your dressed up and hold up two ties: which one?
when you hold me close
just the way you can
strong arms around me strong heart beats to match mine
how I love you
oh you'll never know
