Captivated with Regards

By Peter Scott

I find myself thinking about you
With a blanket of
Empty perceptions
Reason eludes me
Yet continue do I bask
In your sudden existence
I find myself calculating
The chance of meeting
When desire surges with strength
In us both
I know not the color of your eyes
Amongst the enamor shed to your body
Simple painted portrait
Beautiful all the same
On closer inspection
The canvas is more than a mirror
With introspection comes assurance
My dreams will center on you
And they do
Stranger last week
Lover tomorrow
It scares any sense of rationality
To speak so quickly
Of certainty
Divine intervention
Strikes no cord of truth
Perhaps fortuitous nature
And a calm comprehension
Of shared mentality
Excuse my brash assumptions
Or the hopes I suppress
There’s a glint in your eye
A need for this love
Thus I look forward to your call
With open arms
Not commitment
But a quick shuttle to our place
In history.
