you used to

shimmer in the glass
i now struggle to look past
catch me stuck
on a glance
enthralled
entranced

make no become yes
before i could ever
confess

draw my lips to your face
without question
seduction
without suggestion

anticipate my sigh
catch it in your eye
melt it in your hands
on my skin
let it sink deep
within

dance with my words
make the space between them
heard

let your gaze twinkle
with giggles
no sound could make
no eye could fake

redefine my heart
in a sentence
dream my scent
like you meant it

make galaxies vanish
and universes bloom
(in this very room)

smile
at me
like i
was a million
fantasies

gaze at
our
sky
with wonder at such
beautiful
stars
forget where we are
because
'we
just
are'

and now
we
are
so
very
very




far

you used to
