Afar... Poem by Nestor David Armas

I see you from afar;

Twinkling brightly like a star,

As your face lights up;

Not from the coffee in your cup,

I can hear the pitter patter of your heart;

Faster and faster from the start,

As your eyes lock;

Tick tock,

Time stands still;

Wonder how long till,

You're both in each other's arms;

Exchanging kisses like collector's charms,

This sweet embrace;

Who would have suspected this the case?

Two lover's hearts entwined;

Love's response in kind,

No one the wiser to your wit;

Practiced getaways like the perfect skit,

Each day the feeling growing strong;

Learning each other like the words to your favorite song,

And soon I hope the perfect culmination;

Will arrive to this incantation,

Live for each moment in this dreamy existence;

As you live for each other without pretense...
