I sit sipping purple champagne in the pouring rain.

Waiting in hazy vain.

Glasses filled, hearts emptied, throats simmered.

We sit eyes darted down to each other’s chins.

Motionless, breathless, timeless.

Signature origami heart in hand, pen and notebook handed your way.

Ten flicks, pen clicks, my heart sinks.

My pocketwatch ticks as my mind runs tricks.

Hoping you wouldn't blink when you'd pause to think.

My world shrinks as I'm brought to a lovestruck brink.

I can feel a physical warm link on an emotional skating rink.

Was it amber, or was it the bar light that catches them right?

In any case, we were too close for me to tell.

Would the moment fleet or are my feelings on retreat?

My heart skips a beat as your breath hugs my chin with heat.

Your lipstick made my Honey Pink Lady a little more sweet.
