Beneath Our Waking Selves
When I passed you,
Sparks touched off in deeper places.
Something behind your eyes...
Something farther back than those deep clear eyes
hinted of a fire that burned familiar.
I know those eyes from somewhere.
There was a glimpse of someone I knew,
like a friend in a stranger's body.
And your touch was too familiar,
with none of the distant groping strangers endure.
Something in me remembers,
and I know that you know, too.
Let's plunge in again.
Be with me again, my love,
and we'll surrender to those currents
that flow beneath our waking selves.
Come with me, and we'll play again...
