as my day is ending
your day is beginning
and somewhere in between
we agree to meet
in the middle
for we both know there
is much nobility in struggle
and strife has its own courage
as we repeatedly wave this
flag of mutual example
over and over
these very mentioned conversations
inter woven with such attraction
preoccupied are my private thoughts
how they delightedly dance
around your favored image
you as well introduce yourself
as quite vulnerable to me
and this captures me so sweetly
surely you could never even
jokingly care to disagree
still, perhaps you do not realize
how remarkable such glimpses are
of your lovely interior self
to me, you could not be half so
handsome physically
as you are from the mental
image I regularly sketch of you
as we speak
in what ever the way we choose
for just as I thought
you said it too
its so simply because
my dear
you are you
and nothing else to me
matters
not culture
nor opinion
nor any outsiders view
and this once writ
I can not undo..........................
