Love's Approach

A suspended pause in the music before notes touch
creating a sound that did not exist before our knowing of each another.
​
The imagining of tones and expressions held by the movement of your tongue
as your words take shape in order to fall upon my ears.

An uncontrollable, tingling, sense that what once was is no more
lost in memories which dull and fade in the shining of your Sun.

Slow inhalation of breath pushing my chest upwards towards the blush now seen
​ all heard, felt, and found in the novelty of love’s approach.
