Love


He came into my space
He came in stealthily
He came on time
He came and showered love

Slowly but surely
Slowly and seductively
Slowly so alert
Slowly I fell in love

He kissed me
He kissed me
He kissed me
He kissed me

I felt helpless
I felt his
I felt overtaken
I felt love

With passion
With aim
With his soul
With me

I became his
I became his
I became his
I became his

I asked what next
I asked him for new life
I asked him to make me forget
I asked him to run with my heart

He told me he has me
He told me I am going nowhere
He told me his path is mine
He told me to embrace change

I know he is right
I know he makes me laugh
I know I see my life in his life
I know I need more signs

He taught me not to sleep
He taught me to lay awake
He taught me the sun is the sun
He taught me why run when you can walk

I know I love him
I know time begets time
I know I need to fly
I know he will catch me when I fall

Taking care of your teeth and gums

I like the way you are dressed… so flossing in between the teeth should be manditory    because it will make me notice you more. Do you know the man with the white coat…he is called a dentist…perhaps you could visit him on a regular basis for check ups and cleaning Cut down on sugary foods and drinks ...
