Joy

When I see you smile I feel my heart leap right out of my throat. I am left watching it flying about the heavens. Elated by the sight of your joy. My body does not even yearn for it back. It takes its own delight in knowing such a love for someone other than myself. Chills and goosebumps, waves of hot ripened passion, peace - having found the well within me deep and everlasting. Your joy, something to take pause at. Your joy, a reason all its own to rejoice. Your joy, fills the andonded cavity while my heart dances with the angels also come to celebrate the existance of you and your joy.
