Still

I wonder, I wonder

I move and sometimes the air

Moves with me

I see you

I look up

I see your eyes

And wonder about the way

I shift in my shoes

As your pupils gaze at me

I become deaf and realize you've been talking to me

I wonder what you would do

If I put my finger on your cheekbone

Under your eyes

Looking at me

And traced down the map of your face

Until you stopped me

I'd feel your neck too

I wonder what you'd do

If my hand came home to your lower back

And pressed you hard against me

I think I'd stop wondering

I could feel the blood like Siamese twins

Between us

And now you've finished talking

And look at me that way

The pinpoints of your eyes

Caress mine as time is frozen for one, two seconds

It's hard to tell

It's so still

And so are you
