A Captive Soul

I saw you today
a little differently
than the last time
more jovial
more relaxed
making me laugh and smile
even though I was trying not to
making me wonder why
I was allowing myself
to be caught up in you.

Maybe it was the crooked smile
you sent my way
my eyes
painting your face
wanting to smooth out
soften and lift up
the lower edges of your lips
with a touch, a kiss.

Maybe it was the look in your eyes
what lay behind them
a warm glow
wanting to ignite a flame in me
signaling a want
a desire to see more
feel more, be more with me.

I saw you differently today
even though not trying to
and wondering now, why
I was allowing myself
to be caught up in you.

Whew...this is poetic tantalization here. Maureen, you have done a great job.

Were you looking, Wynter, with eyes or with a different mind set?

Well done!

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

I look with my feelings, interloper, and they usually are right on the nose as to what is true..*s..I have great intuition...sometimes I wish I didn't. I am one of those persons although I have that need  now for reading glasses..I am one who can see a black bug crawling across a black floor........what that means..don't ask  'cause I don't know...I am giving you more info than I am sure you  ever needed to read...must be a lonely day for me  *s
