a poem

When I was in Japan, riding on the train

There was a guy sitting across from me and I couldnt take my eyes off of him.

This is a poem for him-

I loved you

in but a glance

I dared to dream of romance..

I dreamt of your skin

so smooth to my eyes-

the soft pout of your lips

Had me memzmorized

You in your own dream (he was sleeping)

me in mine-

The moments flashed by

a sigh in my mind-

How I coveted what

I could not have!

I tried to look away

but temptation drove me mad!

Your soft oval face

That thick black hair-

Such powerful beauty

I couldnt help but stare-

Oh how my passion burned for you

I wanted my fire to burn you, too

To this very day

I still wonder, and long after you

are you fairing well?

what things do you do?….

But to have you as mine is an impossible demand

since you my darling are in

In a strange far off land.
