it's another peek into what could be
everytime I allow these thoughts to roam,
I place them there
beside that door, slightly ajar ...

the light sneaks in
around your smile
recognition flames,
I am careful, tho'
not to languish long in this rare exchange,
as not to lose control
or get too intense
as I have so many times before ...

I love this part of 'us' we share
treading soft with feelings bare,
I wrap my heart around your laugh
the sound of you
when you say my name,
and remember ...

how these feelings do soar
anytime my thoughts bump into you,
as they often do
in the whispered stream
and catch a later flight,
you've got to know
what I've tried so hard to make right
my need for you,
alone ...
