The First Greeting From Your Eyes

I shouldn't have looked into wondrous eyes
to find a reason to comply and stay
and dance with romance beneath stars that sigh
in a fragrant-scented night, I'll obey
that your eyes so tender could hold me chained
with delicate passions burning desire
I become a prisoner that's retrained
freedom is granted to caress the fire
we'll hear the breathless breath of love in flight
and find a quietness that we'll embrace
unaware of stars falling through the night
I am lost in eyes that reflect love's grace
that I have looked into your wondrous eyes
to strip my mask, my unwilling disguise

This is such a beautiful and miridical love poem with absolutely gorgeous descriptions about the beloved's eyes and aura.. True love can genuinely compel us to reveal and discover our true selves, to bring out the best in us. "fragrant-scented night", "unaware of stars falling through the night" Gorgeously written!
