I remember she noticed
How I looked at my date,
"They are in love,"
She said,
And we were
At that moment

But I have had eyes
Like that before,
Yearning,
Hoping to feel
Something,
And still
Wanting

True love
Only happens once,
I believe
I want true love
I want to let go, relax
And lie surrounded
In warmth and joy
Kindness and trust
And I want to give back
The same support
And tenderness

I want to caress your cheek
And gently move your hair,
Look deep into your eyes
Beyond the white crescents
And glassy reflection,
Deep into you,
Where we become
One heart, one soul, one body
Speaking with no words,
Understanding
Without thinking,
Lips drawn together,
Kissing
Unaware,
Shallow
Breathing,
Chest rising
And bodies
Tangled,
In some beautiful
Human ballet…
I want to be in love
