Take the Poem as You Please
I've seen you with my two eyes
You're a mystery etheral
Because beauty is not
The right adjective to describe you...
You stare back at me;
I avert my gaze
I pretend to do soemthing important
You stay looking and I look back
Our eyes lock into place
More haphazardly than precisely
Unlike two space shuttles docking
We are prone to look other places
Nervous? Curious? Who's to say?
But who will talk first?
Maybe, I think, I'll grab you
By the hand and we will
Travel to places where we
Won't care about the future
We'll travel blindly to the stars
To the ground where the people
Created Great cities
To replicate the sky, but barring it
From ever being gawked at
By oblivious citizens
However, I often wonder
And I think
If I should just stay there
And relish your gaze
Maybe as you relish mine
Often times I wonder if
I should take my time with you
And be prudent
Evaluating the depths of your dark gaze
