As the shades of night are pulled
The heady scent of jasmine dances on midnight breezes
Cool and uplifting
You gaze at me with those ambiguous eyes
Hypnotic, sensuous,
I wonder what is rippling over your stream of conciousness
Innocence or burning desire?
Guilt or regret?
You set my heart ablaze
Every smile, every gesture
With those questioning eyes
I flush red, invisible in this fragrant air
I am awkward
I stumble
Submerged in the total of you!
And the turmoil in my mind
Of \"this can never be\"
A dangerous game
Misinterpretation on my part
A flirt!
Over zealous
Embarrassing!
But to touch you.....
To seduce you...
Would be a crime for which I would do life.
