*there's a metaphor about
finding something you weren't looking for
an unexpected treasure,
& you were that treasure
I wasn't looking for;
like a pearl on the beach
or a star in the sky
I got to graze you with my fingertips;
our lips have never met
but you consume my every thought
unfold every layer of my heart,
disarm me
you laid your heart on mine;
so much love I want to give
even if there's a wait,
it's worth the wait;
reflected in our eyes when they meet,
burning candlelight,
sunset through the window,
how I want you
need you
love you
on whatever is handy
I will write...*
