Innocent or Sinful

You walked across my path

And though I didn't notice you

I could smell your essence

Such an amorous scent

How could I just let you pass,

I set out on the concrete jungle

To follow you

For you could be the one

I just knew,

I approach with such grace

We exchange a few words

Numbers and embrace,

In the concrete jungle

You never know who you may meet

Just an innocent stranger

That may be the man of your dreams

Who knows

A dinner

A good conversation

May be just what the doctor ordered

Does this deem me as a sinner,

With this date I am pleased

But I know deep within

Where my heart honestly leads,

It was a pleasure

To converse with another

But have I committed a sin

Against my love?

Sometime we can feel guilty for our thoughts. To bring and re-create old friendship can rebirth old emotions. A interesting poem. I have been in rooms with old lovers. Hard to talk when there are few hidden secrets. I like the strong ending to the excellent poetry.

I love the way you turn the poem around and offer a different view than what we are used to seeing from these types of poems or little tales of love just beginning. It brings up a good question and issue.

Thank you so much my dear friend :)

we never intend to stray...but this poem poses that perfect question...

can we help it if our heart moves in a different direction even when our head is saying, "Don't, you will be cheating"?

and even if we are pure as snow loyal to a love...we are not blind, and the senses still work at full force...i guess it is what we do with that once it happens...

we may be committed, but we are still alive and breathing and mostly, Aware.
