-Chances Are-

it's that very second when she opens her eyes and stares lovingly back into the ones that have adored her all night
it's that very moment that you both know what the other is going to say, yet speak no words
it's that very instant you can feel no ending, no beginning, no idea where it's all coming from, and then the eyes spill
it's that very first time you saw her cry, held back the tears, and knew something special was born
it's that very personal time you held yourself, wished for the best, prayed for the chance, and the eyes engulfed you
it's that very smell that reminds you, of times loved, of times lost, and the very presence
it's that very chance that the feeling is mutual, the sparkles are true, and the thoughts are inline
it's that very glimpse seen together of the same stars, the same future, and the awe of beauty within
it's that very chance that you might meet again, that you have always been together, and that something might last forever
it's that very strange empty feeling, the loss within, and the thought of live's lived within eachother
it's that very thought that life and love are not so simplified, that you have both given all you could
it's that very smile that appears on our face, that seems to wrap around between eachother together
it's that very thought that scares us beyond all understanding, within some strange looping situations, without the usual
it's that very interesting look in someones eyes, that again makes us wonder, without eachother
it's that very thing that might drive us crazy, or deeper within, maybe just lost
it's that very simple chance that we might understand eachother completely

Probably the easiest of outstanding picks to be my fave of all I've read by you, my friend. Well done... very well done. I place it above Autumn Ages as a personal most liked... and, indeed, most appropriate at this juncture in several fellow poetic soul mates here. Thanks.
