Running in parallel lines
Glancing in your direction
Moving closer -
Yet so far away
Restless energy
Like a storm brewing
Inside of us
We found something
Reluctant to say it
Or even think it
Lest we spoil it
With paltry sentiment
Sprinkled across the bed
Like rose petals
Divine scent
But quick to wither
Blow away in the wind
Leaving us naked
Uninvited in the heart
So let’s not say it
We can see it
In each other’s eyes
Enough to spark courage
Praising what we know
Kisses unite us
Passion wraps us
In perfect gauzy veils
Safe in each other’s arms

I like this poem. I could feel the fear of spoiling it by acknowledging it, but knowing it's there nonetheless. Very nice.

Nice write. I liked. Yes, that silly little word has ruined many potentially great things. But ah the feeling itself is nice. Good write. I like the use of words in it.

Love all the interjected question marks. No wonder you are published. This is another eclectic write.
