You had caught me off guard
The one with the focus
And the working pencil
Who’s two ears grab the air
Catching each word spoken.
I am to wonder
Could I assert my claim?
Mark you as mine
You must have been somewhere
Under my little nose,
So that when I looked down
I did perceive your hands,
So that when I looked up
I did perceive your eyes-
Those diminutive gems
Rarest alive
Chemical reaction
Some sort of strange glow
From your eyes into mine
Chemical reaction
That burns up my body
Not to be implosive
But to be pouring out
Through affection
If the gems aren’t in sight
The burning feels changed
With no outlet but sighs
And endless daydreaming.
I drift to a day spent with you,
Walking or laughing or holding,
Any moment spent with you,
A real go-getter for the good
