One look
And my guard falls to hell
Every ounce of survival instinct falters
And my heart melts to mush
Memories flash in my minds eye
Scorching and heady
Arms and legs tangled in sweat
Cheats heaving
Lips smashing into each other
With fervor

One look
Sends me off my balance
Teetering over the edge
Desperate for that sweltering connection that we used to have

One look
And my heart is crushed
Into sharp and jagged pieces
For what was and what could never be again

One look
Is all it takes for me to question everything
Every fear
Every desire
Every expectation

Two ships passing in the night
With just
One look
