Virgo Stare

Made me
Saved me
Your eyes were the arms reaching to pull me up from the cold swamp, rising high, ready to swallow whatever hope remained
Your stare produces heat
Inflames needs
Your eyes shine bright--the light like the center of the sun
Burns
Carried me unto safe grounds
In them is a best friend in a smile
A boat afloat the Nile
I crave looking in your eyes--to soak in their chartreuse waters
Your eyes keep record of my life's glory and its dark story
Your stare never bores me
We have fallen into our souls by sight and cease to let go at night
Stare into me
Pull me from behind
Worries hide
In your stare I nearly lose my mind
Don't reason what I feel
Instead just flow
As my captain you say go and it is so
Following ... trusting you know
My hurt in your glare never shows
When you look, the peak of Mount Everest is shook
You chase me
To catch me
Arrest me
Hold me
Clothe me
Throw me
Undress me
Playfully yet namely and mainly--slowly
You place a finger or two in my shaft
Causing tense rivers to blast
In your stare, there ... is a 2nd chance
A reason to laugh
Lay on the grass
Love in mass
