A Dance For Two

The Look of Love

By Brittney MckinneyPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

A single glance and flames ignite

Sending signals to the brain it’s time

A feeling of warmth that covers you

A moment of sweet recognition

You look away afraid of what could be there

Your mind a mess of doubt and insecurities

Another glance and they are on the way

Unable to move frozen with anticipation

You gather your thoughts and try to act cool

a few moments feel like forever as you wait

Finally you are face to face with the one

A person so complete you feel broken

A smile of uncertainty to break the ice

A gentle caress to show how they feel

No words have been spoken nor needed

A single glance and flames ignite
