A Beautiful Moment In Time

Time Stopped... The moment I saw you, my thoughts relived each feeling of my past, the beauty of summer romance and sadness of lost passion, the intense pain of young life and the slow loss of growing old, the need to share love and the ever present desire for the touch of a beautiful woman. I was transfixed... My emotions left me weak and self conscious, as the cool green earth of your intense gaze melted into the deep blue heaven of mine, the essence of love at first sight with intensely deep and dark desire, the passion overwhelmed me with an impossible yet insatiable need for you. You stopped... As your eyes met mine, each of your fingers slipped from between his and your body slowly turned but your eyes remained on me. Your cheeks gently flushed but you did not look away. Your full lips hinted at a gentle smile when finally you broke your longing gaze and took his hand once more. Our eyes met again... As you quickly glanced back at me, I wondered what you were thinking, thoughts of an intensely beautiful and caring affair of mutually given satisfaction and pleasure, the need for a lasting, caring relationship filled with a lifetime of love and tenderness, or perhaps it was just the need to be seen, to be noticed, to be wanted, to live in someone else's world... if only for a moment. 01/06/2016

Very well crafted piece. Time and aging are the enemies of our lives and never stop. We must learn how to appreciate whatever time is allotted us. A7
