Possibilities...



"Excuse me", I whispered, just loud enough
So that only he could hear
Our knees brushed again and I looked up
The smile on his lips, more than I could bear

My skin started to burn
The flame rising from deep within
I wondered if anyone else knew
There at the table, as my head started to spin

His sultry voice had me mesmerized
Words tinged with passion
Teasingly, quickly, he glanced at me
To see if I was watching

My eyes pierced his for a brief moment
And I knew he felt it too
Another time, another place
The things that we could do...

Author notes

This is a fantasy piece, born out of observing people when they think no one's watching, lol! Thanks Swan, for encouraging me to post this...

      Thanks for taking the time...

      to read and comment, moluv; it really means a lot to me. I wasn't expecting anyone else to read this besides AsIThink and Swan (they've been paid handsomely, lol!) Appreciate the encouragement...

          That was a typo,

          I meant to say that you and Swan are so handsome! lol! (Does that buy me any extra words of praise for my next piece?)

            hahaha...very cute (but 'shamefully', it buys you 5-7 lines of 'praise-text' - lol).

      for the nudge (I think it was more of a friendly shove, lol!). I might actually attempt another piece...

        (hahaha...cute; very cute). You are most welcomed; I was totally shocked (well, I would have been EXCEPT that Swan 'hinted') that you posted your first piece. So as soon as I could, I dropped by.
