You And Me
What is there to talk about?
The excitement of my imagination and your image, floating there, so much possibility,
promise, and if this ends like most stories, this possibility will fizzle out to nothing, maybe just, "Hello" when we see each other, in passing.
But who knows? Maybe this story will be different, something beautiful, and exciting
and inspiring, something that we both end up.. falling in love?
Well, that sounds kind of over the top but, I don't know, you get the idea.
Over and over there is this question for me;
What does it mean when you meet someone and feel something, some kind of
shininess coming from them, a glimmer of recognition from some place down
near your stomach?
Is it stupid and nothing and meaningless, genes and pheromones, or fantasy and idealism? Is it something desperately important, every time a missed opportunity
if you don't catch it, a soulmate lost due to shyness or the situation?
I was happy to see you again last night, wanted to talk,
glimmered in your direction, though only in my typically clumsy way.
A crazy idea that I can't quite let go of : That the feeling of connection is actual.
Now I sound totally nuts, it will be easier to explain to you in person,
which right now, totally convinced that you will understand,
I am actually planning to do it tonight.
It will be fun to try.
I love you, baby.
Your kiss came as a suprise, something remarkable, something sensational.
You unlocked my sealed lips, and I would allow you to do it again.
Your kiss, your touch, so gentle, yet so poisonous to my heart.
ready for love at 3:03 AM.
