Dyslexic in Love

Instants pass like centuries.

Violently, I yearn for your touch to
linger along my cheek,
even as I know you think of me
only as a poor companion.

Ultimately, I cannot speak—
your beauty paralyzes me.
Oh, for the courage of Alexander!

Do not look my way;
my heart cannot take the
agony of your warm smile,
your bright and shining eyes!
Let me suffer in the dark.

Only in the night do I hope,
evening stars illuminating my
loneliness, my every thought
vested in love, my poems full of it and you.
