Senses

Noiselessly
You enter my soul
Begging to capture my attention
I see you

You steal my breath
You make my heart race
Feeling flushed and relaxed
I feel you

Flooding my veins
Taking every last drop of my blood as your own
Rising up to my mouth as I attempt to respirate
I taste you

Breathing rapidly
In & out, in & out
My nostrils burning with your presence
I smell you

Crying silently
Commanding my attention without a single word
Cradling my heart as only you can
I hear you

Five senses
You are present in them all
Yet, to you, I do not exist
Where am I?

I cry out…you do not hear
I signal for your attention…you do not see
The decay of my emotions…you do not smell
My love…you do not taste

My innermost feelings…you do not feel

Yet to me, you are my world
It seems that I only exist
To notice you
My senses have deceived me.
