PIANO KEYS

Sun rays ran across my skin

in the deepest darkest faze

as I met his gaze

I just knew it was fate

a matter of faith had brought me to this place

There is no way to imitate

the unsettling way my heart raced

I stood, my heartbeat a tenacious bass

The eyes that carried an ocean,

slowly moving, spoke clearly to me

as I watched all of his silent words

Heat coiled through my body

as the sunlight’s paint wiggled across the brown waters

of the eyes before mine

In the overwhelming unknown, I felt excitement

I felt a nervous peace, and purpose

all at once

my excitement unconcealed

as my lips failed to stay together,

lightly parting,

revealing how focused,

how unrelaxed I was before him
