taken

words failed to describe your radiance
illuminated by the glorious sun
you walked towards me with a becoming charm

completely unprepared for what was to come
i stood still and let the wind blew by
electrifying everything your gaze fell upon

how have i missed this kind of power
the one that sparks life in every atom
of desire, of hope, of love

was i ready to succumb to your immeasurable force,
abandoning everything that i was
just to be swayed by your magnificence?

no, perhaps in a different lifetime
when we were both guiltless and unattached
then, and only then, can we freely fool around.
