A stolen glance is all it
Was
All it ever
Will be.
The light focused just so-
That our eyes should
Lock,
Hold tight-
In this crystalline moment
Like liquid perfection
Color bends and
The dimensions forget
Themselves
To present you to me
And me to
You,
There across it all!
A stolen glance may be all it
Was
All it ever
Will be…
But the hair on our
Necks and
Arms know one day
It may be more…
