I Fell In Love with a Stranger

April 30, 2012

I fell in love with a stranger

His stance so strong and lean

His movements smooth as a dancer

His skin is painted sheen

I watch him run and steal

He flies with no trace of fear

A face so intricately lined

Enhanced by the rays of light

Unabashed I watched and delved

Face in a crowd I go unnoticed

Captivated, willingly distracted

Every detail, dutifully noted

Alas, no words were ever exchanged

On fours, my head hung low

Another day, my bed is made

I wait to write my next poem
