It was her hair, like the tall

Filter through threads of the woven,

Of the whole dress beneath her legs

And I felt the way her hands took the souls of my feet

Like an angel does under the breath of life,

The way her sad, sad eyes were mine to look at,

Mine like the mirror and I felt her fall into my face like

The river into the suns eyes,

She to my right, like a small piece of the night into the pockets of my life.

 

Here, I took the wooden door off,

Here I said, heart like little trumpets

Running their tunes through her corner of the street,

 

Running in my shoes for a million feet,

Her shadow said hello, the rose right above her door,

That wooden entrance, that sudden feeling,

Of such a dance that the people said, please, please, take her hand

 

The world left us a seat, a seat around the night,

Where the stars didn’t mind me stealing their thunder

Just for this one time, this one chance to be happy,

A place where I haven’t been until today,

This is love, this is what I wish for at the night

But love, please don’t go.  Love please don’t go until they find you beneath this,

Above those stairs to your wooden door.

Your choice of words are just beautiful,  and I
adore the romance that resonates off the page.

Fine writing, Tomer~
