"One Look"

One look.
One touch.
One feel.

Sometimes less . . .
Sometimes more.
What is real?

Sometimes . . .
I see such love behind those eyes.

And other times . . .
the painful cold can paralyze.

I want to fight.
I want to feel.
I want to be.

Can I have a love
that soothes my soul and sets me free?

I look into your eyes.
What I see puzzles me.

Something far away . . .
What are you looking at?

What do you see ?
Are you even looking at me?

We call this love.
We embrace.
We walk away.

We try again another day.

Just one look . . .
is all it takes to melt my heart.

Just one look . . .
is all it takes to break it too.
