LOOK ME IN THE EYE

 

Look me in the eye,

Woman.

Let me not lie to you;

Not now.

Not how I feel about you.

Make it easy for me,

Woman.

To share with you

The secrets of my soul.

Make me whole.

Open your heart to me,

Woman.

Let me understand

Who you really are.

Let me comprehend

All of your very real frustrations;

Your elations;

Your fears

And all that you hold dear to you.

Share with me,

Woman

Your inspirations

Your aspirations.

Your bold ambitions.

Your dreams

Your schemes

And your most fantastic fantasies.

Fly with me,

Woman.

Just for this one magical moment

To a time, a place.

To a space and a feeling called sublime.

Its our time.

Brief as this may be.

But it will pass.

It will end.

But by then,

I pray that you'll be

My most precious friend.
