Our Dear Love

Though he sat at a distance
A couple of meters yonder
Why then his eyes fixed on me
I couldn’t help but ponder

Though they were not precise
His eyes kept dwindling in my direction
A blush on my cheek
In his vision, a touch of affection

Striking up conversations with others
Casual he tried to seem
But the love he looked at me with
Was no less than that of a dream

My eyes also kept flickering
In his way a couple of time
Oh, go ahead and detain me
If so much fondness seems to be a crime

Peeping in his course
He saw me, I feared
When smiling at me
His glass of wine he cheered

With courage, my head I nodded
Not realizing the smile I had on me
It was as if the lock on my heart
Had found its one long lost key

Could get lost for hours
Looking at his face charming
Never till uttered a word to him
Let that for now remain barring

To approach the other
No had the courage
In this distantly seated date
Our dear love did flourish
