One’s eyes

communicate with such clarity

while words are needless

Something I had forever been acquainted with

But your eyes

absolutely intoxicating

I found myself gazing into them

far longer than I ever imagined

There was a depth

an unknown

a story

and I was consumed by it

This desire to understand

and to truly know

I wanted more

To know everything there was to know

about you

And this feeling

it was new and unlike any other

but I wasn’t about to question it

Allow me to be the audience for all that is intertwined 

inside your brilliant and beautiful mind

That is all I ask

 ☆

We walked

accompanied only by street lights

overwhelming lust

and a cool breeze

which scurried through the alleyways

just in time

The immediate future was foreseen 

but we remained quiet

like our city

as it was falling fast asleep

This is the part of the evening when we

thank each other for lovely company

say goodnight

and part our ways

But our night was still young 

much younger than we had imagined

and it was to be nothing less than indelible

 so you pulled me close to your body

and kissed my lips

with a passion I had never known

but have longed for since that moment

a moment relived in memory alone

with you
