How

A poem about falling in love

How did she know
That my eyes had fallen upon her
Leaving me in longing
A seeming desperate eternity

 

How did she feel
As I sprinkled rose petals in her path
Leaving me imagining
That she was lost in distraction

 

How did she simply smile
When I offered first breathless words
Leaving me perplexed
Switching off the sparkle in her eyes

 

How did she wait
As I paced the floor of my mind
Leaving me sequestered
As she orchestrated my suffering
pangs beautiful

 

How did she decide
To drag me into her love’s lake
Leaving me eternal benefactor
Of shelter within the warm cocoon of her soul
