You glanced my way
My pulse quickened
I glanced your way
Our eyes met
You glanced my way
My pulse quickened
I glanced your way
Our eyes met
Relaxing on the bus, listening to music, feeling happy, content because Friday, when suddenly he pops up in my view, and before I know it and can even stop it
Butterflies
My one true crush is back in town
My hair is not done, my roots on display
My weight has increased, my wrinkles have grown
I think of his eyes, the depth of his blue
And see the echo in his child who is new
I cross the street, I’d rather be swayed
To not say hello, to not stop and greet
I cannot be trusted, my arms won’t behave
To not wrap around him, to hug and embrace
I’ll leave the past, dead as it is
And ignore the sound roaring –
Those pounding heart beats
There is not much I know about him
From when I first set eyes upon him
And a single look took my breath away
I never knew then how so amazingly
Our paths would cross
How he was already in my life
That I only had to wait
There is not much I know about him
What he feels or what he thinks
All I know is all I have
Precious moments
Tender memories
Stolen kisses
Eyes meeting eyes
Lips kissing lips
Hands touching hands
And after so many open doors
Of so much wasted time
And fallen tears
And smiles
There is not much I know about him
Every time you lean towards me
And kiss me like you do
Every time you turn on the charm
And my knees tremble at the thought
Every time I hold you close
Knowing you will never stay
Every time we are alone
Every time I see your eyes
Every time I savor you
Every time I fall for you
You are imprinted
On my mind
My life
My soul
I waited an eternity
For you to pull me close
And when your hand caressed my hair
So tenderly, and when I was pulled into
Your arms, I knew I was
Home
I loved you then
And now I find
I still do
After all that
I’ve been through
Loving you –
Wells of tears
Hopes and fears
Waiting
Dreaming
Hoping
Praying
One look from you
And I melt

Soft fluttering wings
Flying freely inside me –
Your eyes are power
Forbidden kisses
Dance across my mind – your lips
Chase my resistance
