in a moment

i look in your eyes,and i see your pride for me.

i look in the mirror and see beauty because you put it there.

kiss me i feel like a goddess,
touch me and i'm on fire,
laugh, i glow up inside,
cry and i would die to make it stop

you bestow upon me, an imprint of your heart,
and i receive it with unspeakable admiration.
you taught me to love again, i am forever in your debt
take me to your haven, and show me your intent

Author notes

looking into the eyes of a second love, and having a whirlpool of emotion and thought while lost in those eyes
it is all the thoughts and feelings you can have in just one moment, that shows the true power of love

I was caught in the last stanza, on the last line. It really made the poem come together for me, "show me your intent." You leave it open for the reader, like a question to which there are many answers. Lovely write!
