JERRY BROWNING  

AURORA BOREALIS    

 


 

Glimmer
 

I want and need you
immersed in my life,
like nothing else
I've ever pined for...
you are the "one"

with classy, girly ways
and the teasing smile
of a bratty little sister,
I’m drawn to the mystery
of your secret world

the magnetism
and electricity
that fill a room
when we’re together
are undeniable
forces of nature
and every time I see
your beautiful face,
I’m captivated
and amazed

my teenage crush,
my first love,
my rebound love,
my one true love
all wrapped neatly
in the cutest little package
exceeds my imagination
and most thrilling dreams

you make me feel
like a hero when I’m down
like the handsome bad boy
who makes the pretty girls sigh
when I’m feeling insecure...
then you have this look
in those lovely eyes
like you need to touch
and love only me
with all your being
crashing my walls…
melting every inhibition

my life before you
was a nocturnal quest...
seeking truth, taking shelter,
longing for daylight...
you are the golden edge
of the clouds at dawn
and I want us to be
consumed in that brilliance
until the final glimmer
kisses the last horizon

Houston, Texas '14
