Her fingers fall upon the keys
And the piano quickly answers.
Outside, the unexpected breeze
Spins fallen leaves in round dances

And sunrays stretch out to caress
Her sable hair and falling down,
They warm her shoulders and her chest
And by her feet they slowly drown.

The music rises with emotion,
I gasp for air and realize
I never loved with such devotion
Somebody solely for their eyes.

We never meant to be alone,
But fate had plans we couldn’t alter
And mesmerized, my hand was drawn
To gently fall upon her shoulder

In her, it struck the deepest chords
She looked at me with warm affection
We never had the time for words
She never asked for my confession...

Wow, I loved this stanza:

In her, it struck the deepest chords
She looked at me with warm affection
We never had the time for words
She never asked for my confession...

Great poem!
