A Glimpse of your Heart

A Glimpse of your Heart

It's quite natural I suppose...
I looked into your beautiful eyes and saw my reflection,
I watched your subtle movements...
your dance-like walk ~

A glimpse of your Heart I saw that morning...
I could have turned my eyes away,
I tried.
....but could not.

Without expectations,
I peered into your Heart...
and as though seeing a woman for the first time,
I could see nothing else.

Will my Heart allow me to stop this?
Can I forget you now?
Should I?

No...with no expectations in return....I will remain.

I will soon leave...
and where I go,
my eyes will speak of you...
my lips will not move...
but the passion of my Heart
will shake the Earth.

This, I know.

The Foolish Heart (take two)

I made a promise to myself that I would pass by and leave no wake...
that I would respond to those around me with a benign disposition,
not cold....and certainly not hot.

The foolish tend to declare the unlikely...
so it is with me.

I have shamelessly fallen...

I have seen the spark of Love within my bosom again...
i once thought it to be forever gone...
trampled under the feet of a heartless brood.

No...my heart is not dead...
This fool declares it so.

Marked as spam When she  walks towards me...I am as a ghost... quick to fade. Others see her for her obvious beauty ....her smile, her eyes... I do too....and yet... I have seen another side of my beautiful " city.".... her laugh, her cries, her heart that still loves despite the torment that fate has bequeathed upon her. I see her frame that still stands tall... despite those that would have her fall. I want to tend her gardens...I want to carress her and keep her safe from the darkness. Does she know this of me?  Have I kept this secret for too long? Should I leave these shores my Love and come to you? Will you call for me?      How shall I recognize your voice? Will I hear you through the distance? Am I just a hopeless romantic to experience his own shipwreck? I know of the gulf between these two oceans ~ and I am forever drawn to chase away the distance.. So be it.... I have seen these shores far too long... So be it. Gregory
