When Summer Comes

When summer comes
and we are finally standing
face to face ~
will we rush wildly
into each other's arms,
or stand quietly,
gazing intently into each other's eyes,
waiting anxiously for some sign
of who will make the first move?

I confess I cannot say,
I only know when summer comes
and you are finally within arms reach,
I want to feel your hands
on every part of me at once.
I want to fall deep
into that long anticipated kiss,
so deep that I might never
come up for air.
And if I am to drown,
let it be in your eyes
when summer comes.
