ambrosia and nectar

I ache for your presence 
My heart is warmed by your name in my thoughts 
You tease me with gifts from another world 
Inviting me in 
Feeding me 
Ambrosia and nectar of the gods 
I taste the sweetness of confusion 
Just brushing the tip of my tongue 
Before dissolving and changing me 
Forever 
You hold me close 
Whispering small nothings 
Delicate songs 
Ringing in my ears like golden bells 
I am under your spell 
I am yours 
But you are hardly mine 
For what is a mere mortal to a god 
I open my eyes 
Staring back is a boy 
No god 
No ambrosia or nectar 
He pulls me close to him 
Comfort overcomes me 
We dance. 
He is mine. 
If only for a moment.♥
