Once upon a Saturday

maybe it's not meant to be
yet there you are
in front of me
your soft sweet smile
and powdery skin
deep dark eyes
that i fall in

infinite
as is your soul
the kindness shared
and times untold

our future bright
yet unknown
with yearnings
unquenched
and surprises
bestowed

each day
each hour
that passes by
w/out you and me
side by side

my heart sinks
lacking your embrace
as i ponder the paths
our hearts will take.
