[Poetry] “Gently killed by her gaze”

How can I tell her
about her tender crimes?
The unintended cuts from her smile;
Sly theft of my emotional calm.
She has tossed me into a whirlwind of love.
Trespassing into my dreams;
She has become the melody
that enters my ears, even when
she speaks nothing at all.
I am strangled by her fragrance,
and left as a solitary bard,
singing hymns about her beauty.
Like an aimless wanderer, searching
yearning for her presence.
Gently being killed by her gaze,
I surrender, to her enchantment.
