I have not met you but I can see you
You are a ghost of a man I loved.
As I enter the room I see you
I know- but you and your computer do not even notice my glance
I turn down a free drink from some stranger
The high that fills my thigh and body with excitement
No fear, no caution
I know you might be married or the father of some child, but- peace comfort
You notice me - a calm smooth face
There is no need to act sexy
This is an inner real closeness
I am not a stripper sent there to arouse you
This is not a calculated routine
And as your eyes meet mine I know that this is the real love at first sight that it seems
