I see you
staring from across the room,
but that twinkle in your eye
captivates me so,
I can't look away, too.

I'm uncharted,
You're a creation of my daydreams;
We're familiar strangers
like Adam and Eve
as we lust over this forbidden fruit.

I see a smile
and our lips are in sync -
curving upward
as our eyes shy away;
The things we do not know
won't stop us
as we travel to the edge
of each other's imagination.

Dancing...
             She likes to dance
as she twirls through my mind
like a dream from long ago.

That look
(I know where it leads, do you?)
gleaming from within
the meadows of her glistening,
green
eyes,
expresses desire -
and she knows I'll succumb.
Tongue-tied and speechless,
I hope that she believes in fantasies, too.

You're one in a million,
and we're one-on-one;
The possibilities know no limit...




So let's keep them that way:
I'll remember you in fantasy,
and you can pretend that you knew me.
To the most beautiful stranger I'll never know again...

Who Am I

Who am I
Who are you
When you look back
Who do you see
When you look back
do you see me

who am I
do you know
who are you
who do you see

when do you know
who you are
do you see who you are
or do you see who you want to be
who made you
do you see me

when you look back
who do you view
do you know who I am
do you see who I think  I am
or who I want to be
Who Am I
Dedicated to Diane Kelley....
Inspired by all who made me....
