A moments silence
Without a word to say
A passing glance
Looking towards your way.

Your hand reached out
And touched my soul
Your piercing eyes
Making me loose control.

Our lips touching
In a way so sweet
My heart fluttering
The moment we meet.

Not a care in the world
Specifically today
We know the rules
The game we play.

You act like a fool
and say its fun
I act stupidly
Thinking I've won.

But we both know
It has to end
If we're supposed to be together
We will one day mend.

Beth,

What a lovely poem, and so true. We all play games, but only once you understand what you are doing can you move forward.

Keep them flowing.

Nice work, Beth...

leaves me with a tinge of hope for better things to follow... with these lines ...

"If we're supposed to be together
We will one day mend"

Beth- This is wonderful.  I had been wondering when the next one of yours was coming.  You can't win without first participating and if you participate enough times you will eventually win.  Keep smilin.
