The soul that can speak through the eyes can also kiss with a gaze.
~Gustavo Adolfo Becquer~
~*~THE PARTY~*~
He felt her presence in the air, before he saw her form
It made him slightly nervous... his neck grew hot and warm
His mouth was dry, his breath was quick, as he looked around the room
But only caught her silouette, along with some perfume
An auora rose of mystery, a craving for this shadow
To look into her very eyes.......to drink her in....so slow
Something felt familiar, and made his heart feel whole
This man a complex fraction, no peace within his soul
The party was so tight, with laughter, smoke and voice
But he was only focused upon his phantom choice
Looking for her eveywhere, he searched from room to room
Like a bloodhound on the scent.....of shadows and perfume
He found himself walking towards, a couple by the door
Muffled conversation, that sounded like a war
As he watched them silently, she stopped and turned his way
And felt his soul, speak through his eyes....he kissed her thru his
gaze
