Linger

A Poem by Jeffery Hayes

I fell for your eyes
On my lips
Your kiss lingers
Baby how did I get blessed
With having you by my side.

Your head
Resting on my chest.
Listening to my heart.
The heart that you have
Given a reason to beat.

I open my eyes things your just a dream.
Until I see your smile.
Your scent lingering all around me.
You got me thinking about you and me.
I love the way my heart beats
You make me feel alive.

Stay in my arms baby.
I'll keep you safe.
