A Common Ground

I fall so gently for your focus

your illuminated

perplexed computer face

your backlit halo 

pushing in 

Red neon spills to 

bricked backgrounds

infused by jazz 

so smooth and creamy

cups of coffee

I fall so swiftly for your stillness 

your furrowed brow

amused, still tender

your rising chest

pulsing on 

Burnt gold kissing 

the sides of our faces

dissolving in silver keys

so constant and rhythmic 

scripts and stories

"I’d fall for you all day in this place,”

                  She said.

Quietly creating our presence 

in chairs and screens.

This is a soothing masterpiece. I'm in awe of this.

Hi, I liked the tone of this, but I think I'm missing the meaning. Computer dating?

I could absolutely see how you would think that. I actually wrote it sitting across from my boyfriend at a coffee shop. It was around sunset with the light pouring in and I was watching him work on a script. I liked watching him think and it inspired me to write.
