It was just a glance, a spark that locked me in the prison of my thoughts
It was just a glance, a spark that locked me in the prison of my thoughts,
a hazy dream that repeats every night like the refrain of a lost soul,
never close, yet never far, you were a constellation illuminating every corner,
I found you in crowds and empty rooms, your face lived in every reflection of my

Last Glance
Last Glance
I looked in the mirror and see what i saw.
It left without telling me its secrets which I knew without saying .
You had left all of your clothes hanging stiff.
A memory and a fragrant cling
I see that sweater acquired in Paris and the laughter and all the lovely apparel.
The inlaid china which you’d

Love By A Glance
One glance at your face
Saw your eyes,
outer space.
Saw your smile,
heartbeat race.
A Perfect mixture,
love by a glance.
I watch you walking,
You caught me by surprise.
I almost dropped to the floor
looking into your eyes,
the whole world stopped.
I need to give you a try.
A Perfect mixture,
love and eyeing.
Gods creativity is at display,
You drew this girl with a pen of

Second Glance
As I conjugate my verbs I lock eyes with the one person I want to see. If I catch her looking back is she looking at or through me?
Her scent assaults my nostrils and I can feel the sweat begin to pour. If she sent her scent my way does she want to send me

Love in a Glance
Love caught in a glance
Is amidst admiration
And breathless anticipation
A desire to have and hold
Let love flow like a river
From infatuated eyes
Covered by vulnerable heart
To keep close
And not let go

Back when
They say you'd know it,
In first glance,
It's a game of chance.
But we weren't even friends ,
Back then,
When i use to call my usual bluff,
And all my friends roll their eyes,
Saying "girl,that's enough".
Back when,
I never noticed what color was his shirt,
Or what does he do or doesn't ,
They say you'd know when it's love,
I never not.
I

LAST GLANCE
For last glance
The family lined up to say
Their good-byes and that's
When a blind man
Comes to close
He falls and knocks
Over the casket
The dead man rolls out
Onto the floor, then opens
Up his eyes and
Then tells the blind man
To watch where the hell
He’s WALKING!

We glance and shimmer For a love like ours
We glance and shimmer
(For a love like ours)
By Michelle Morris
13/11/2023
A love like ours, shooting stars
Way up high, where we belong
The Universe won't be enough
For a love like ours, a love like ours
It happens every time I look at you
My heart skips a beat, my feelings overwhelm
What is it about love that makes us crazy?
Why

A Second Glance At Belief
You firmly declare, "No God," you say,
Claiming life's a game, no creator in play,
No guiding hand to greet each new day,
No reckoning, no one for mistakes to sway.
I once stood beside you, with disbelief's might,
Then witnessed people, under sun's warm light,
Worship ancient trees, with devotion so tight,
I thought, "How quaint," as they took their flight.
Gathering

Present Tense Visions Glance-
Many are the present tense;
Mostly humbly passive glance;
Morbid finds casual stance;
Mainly passing visions glance;

Mirrored Dreams
She dances she glances
Beyond her shoulder
She peers
Looking back
Her beautiful smile
She poses in the mirror

Bold attack

Amy's Glance
It's not an admirable trait
Jealousy
Though if I'm true, yes powerless over my state
Jealous
Of tiny panes of glass' faint reflection
Envious
Their sussurate echo searing thoughts of their coveted direction
Oblivious
Without knowingly sparking a pandemonius spectacle
A sight
Inspiration to wandering daydreams of letting lips to neck tickle
Too far?
A far glance, eye to eye
Will have to satisfy
