one more time

let me see your brilliant face

the curve of your smile

forever etched upon my memory

like an old tattoo

one more time

let me gaze into your clever eyes

the way the light

reflects gold and gray

dancing playfully

and I am hypnotized

one more time

let me hear your laugh

a waterfall

rushing through me again and again

one more time

let me touch you

the feel of you like satin

what is it about you

that draws me?

only that something in you

understands

wordlessly pulling me in

and I cannot resist

one more time

let us be

here

just as we are
