What Do You Mean By Being In Love? Poem by Karin Holloway

What do you mean by being in love?
Are you lost in me in my sea -
Can it be that you're really in love?
Love lingers latently.

Gentle you oh smooth soft touch
Your magic makes me moan
Do you groan beneath your love?
Love lies loosely.

Warm wise eyes surprised with smile
Search mine - I seem to speak
Without words - won't that suffice?
The word and the deed are different indeed
Their powers preserve partial loves.
Pulsing as Whole I'll lose my soul
Let me love silently.
