Discovering Love At a Signal

The night begins with a cool ocean breeze bringing the uncomfortable temperatures of humidity to a sudden halt. Through the canyons I can hear the distant whispers of innocent voices speaking softly with discontent like they were being punished for their sins. Straddled in the sky was a loud explosion of fireworks bringing emotions through a colorful network in a magical way, as sound boldly penetrates our vast endless universe. Then I heard the cry of death, a faiint squeal of a puppy getting attacked and eaten by coyotes. In the midst of what became suddenly calm and silent, I could hear the crickets. These were not ordinary crickets they were true performers on a stage, each one of them taking turns to do their vocal lead in the key of E. It was very entertaining listening to them, but I decided to go for a cruise when I came to that signal. It was at that red light I saw you, operating through the force of gravity I am drawn to you. Oblivious to my surroundings, my focus is on you. When I see you it is like I am in a trance, my eyes are fixed on you and only you. Nothing else matters, nothing else is in my sight.I am so honored to be in your presence, the desire to have you is so strong. I cannot move I am speechless, talking only with my eyes. Your beauty and your smile just melts my heart away. I examine you from head to toe, wishing with every living breathing part of me that I could lick you and taste a tapestry of love. If I could make a wish on the next full moon, it would be to hold you so close to my heart. Your smell the softness of your skin touching every single part of me, bringing happiness to a whole new level. Then the light turned green and you were gone. As reality sets in and tears fill my eyes, I will never give up hope. This moment of adoration will last an eternity. I will see you in my dreams, as the cosmic forces guide me to my soul mate.
