I wonder if you could sense how I feel when I look at you,
Tilting my head to the side when I smile with you.
The way I feel when I listen to you,
The anticipation in my stomach right before seeing you.

I could hold my breath counting the number of stars I see in your eyes,
Stretch my fingertips to graze the surface of your lips,
And slowly, tenderly,
Fall in love with the way you look at me every time.

I sometimes wonder if you could see all this in my eyes,
Recognize the feeling of my heart in my voice,
Feel the tenderness of my mind lost in translation,
A heart wavering like an angel hair in the wind.
Happy Valentine's day ;p :glomp:

Life is short. live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it. If you enjoyed something from this poem, fav it :blush:

Edit: Okay *laughs* someone asked about the ending of 'angel hair' in the wind..."angel hair" is also a type of spaghetti ;p the thinnest hand made. It's a double metaphor! a thin piece of string, what a heart feels like, hand made, and tossed around in an ocean where it's like a small soft bendable breakable thing flying in the wind forever lost...and unpredictably may land on something solidly good, or drowningly bad -remind me now I have idea for the next poem ;p
