Knowing You Poem by Alan Strand

I know that I’ll know you
When we first do meet
I’ll feel so excited
When my heart skips a beat.

I’ll long to hold you
Just for a short while
To feel your warmth on my skin
To see your beaming smile.

I’ll have to show you
When our eyes do meet
That my heart is open
Inside there’s no deceit.

I will have to kiss you
Our tongues will then entwine
We’ll make some raw sweet love
A love that is divine.

I want to praise you
You are the best
You’ll need to love me
Life is the test.

I’ll have to leave you
And when that has been said
It’s only because
That I’m almost dead.
