Dreams of You

I've been here before, time 
repeating.
It's a revolving door.
 Wanting to look into your eyes,
and drown in a sky of azure. 
Looking into mine, you'll melt 
in the honey color. 
What will I find, when this 
connection is made, a friend, a 
lover, or one in the same. 
Hands will shake, cold and 
clammy, 
gestures of insecurity. 
Stuttering words, though a 
genuine smile, hoping to see 
yours too.
This uncomfortable silence is 
making me dizzy. Just waiting. 
Moment of impact, your arms 
around me, my fluttering 
heart finds a slow perfect 
rhythm. 
I am consoled to feel your heat, 
your body pressing
up against me.
Swimming feeling running 
through my blood, catch me if I 
swoon.
Wanting this first meeting to be 
just as I've dreamed. 
Just as I've dreamed of you.
