Romance…How you would roll your eyes
The sieving of communication is all sport
At one point I found myself running circles in the grass
Silent in my serenade to fireflies upon their evening pass
And then, I realized that you had simply slipped beyond the shade
Standing there in camouflage and pondering dismayed
Stewing on screened porches feigning ignorance to flaming torches
And so I closed my eyes, just as I had seen you do, to my surprise

And you watched me…I could feel your stare
As if my stand defenseless, yet I felt you settled there
Transported us to pleasured speak of joist and woodsy built mystique
More vivid did romance hum…more vivid did your truth become
And softer was your voice, closer to my hear, upon your turn to find me near
You sped to blend into the green of misconception…first the tears came, then connection
Enthralled to find you next to me upon my waking, wondering what chance worth taking
Romance…How you would roll your eyes

Much enjoyed watching him roll his eyes.

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

I really enjoyed this piece...and I agree...each post is drawing me in more and more

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...
