Let's Not Confuse This! Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

When I am near and kiss you...
There is nothing in between us,
I choose to acknowledge that exists.

Past relationships,
Or the sound of a ticking done made by a clock...
Can not stop the flow of my emotions,
Felt and held for you.

I am focused with clarity!
And I am hoping you are too.
Unless we are both two fools,
Misunderstanding this moment.

My heart says 'no'.
Allowing me...
To just let go!
And when I am with you...
That is exactly what we do.

Let's not confuse this!
Or what it is...
For something that it isn't.

It is what it is...
Or you and I would not be here,
To experience it at all.
