It's As If Your Breath Whispers Declarations Of Love Poem by Gert Strydom

It's As If Your Breath Whispers Declarations Of Love



It's as if your breath whispers declarations of love
and next me you lie naked and stretched out,
while you bring warmth to the cold darkness

and when I listen to your breathing
I notice your back, arm and slender neck.
It's as if your breath whispers declarations of love

and my certainty about us, about you becomes a fact,
when your breathing continually covers me like kisses
while you bring warmth to the cold darkness

and at a time my life was shackled in,
when days moved quickly through the calendar.
It's as if your breath whispers declarations of love

as if at times I listen to the secrets of the night
until the sun licks over the distant hillocks
while you bring warmth to the cold darkness

and although at times in life I loose my way
nothing can violate the love between us.
It's as if your breath whispers declarations of love
while you bring warmth to the cold darkness.
