The One

I want my breath to catch,
my heart to race,
my face to redden,
my skin to tingle,
my stomach to fly,
my body to ache,
my soul to come alive.
I want my hand in his,
our eyes to meet,
our lips to touch,
our bodies to intertwine.
I want to trace his outline,
kiss every part,
listen to him breathe,
feel his heartbeat under my palm,
whisper into his ear.
I want him and me,
me and him,
both of us,
forever.
I want the one that will make me whole,
complete my puzzle,
be my missing piece.
I want him.
