Gaze

Do I see me gazing?

Yes.

and I try not to.

When I notice,

I look away

into nowhere, because you

are definitely somewhere

that I want to be…

Doing things

that I want to do

Resting my hands

on yours

as you move them

My feet in

your prints, so that

I’ll be where you are

my thoughts in

yours to make sure

yours run into

mine.

and I am amazed

the strength of my

gaze

when I forget to

turn away

hasn’t made you  say

Stop.
