Sakura Blossoms

On the bridge I wait, my hands clasped 
Something on my mind as time passes
The beauty of the pink little petals~float
Dance in the air~as does my heart
I see your smile, I could see it from miles away
On the other side of the bridge a petal falls on your face
You laugh and I laugh with you, even though we make no sound
I feel light as warm air flowing with the breeze
Just the crinkle by your eyes makes my heart feel free
I take quiet steps across the wooden bridge 
And your hand travels on the rail as you do the same 
Our hands collide as we mirror them 
Only our kiss can make the petals stop~in my mind
