I know that you love me, that you count the stars like my heartbeats Waiting beneath forlorn nights and humid gray rains for me to emerge from around the bends up the dirt road and over the puddles with drenched boots to kiss you deeply. |
Copyright ©2015 Ashi Shadow - 7/15/15 considered leaving it without "deeply."
Initially had "only" before "to kiss you".
The poem only started as the first three lines.
Then I tried to fill in the rest with the mood.
It was inspired by "To Win Your Love" by Dominique Pruitt, and particularly the line "I know you don't realize...
How much you love me too " It's about the idea that there is a fictional someone-out-there dreaming of the author ('me') as the love of their dreams.
