A Love Like This

I look at you across the room,
I can see you looking back at me.
Your desires unfulfilled, I know
that I am what you are wanting.

Belonging to another, but do not care,
you want to leave your lover, because
my love you want to share.

You walk by, gently brush against my arm,
I am left with the scent of your cologne.
We gaze into each other's eyes.

You are wanting me, something that
I can tell, eyes can not lie. Once you lose
a love like this, it will not be easy to find.
