Eyes in a Room

 

Eyes in a Room

by JP Leddy

 

Eyes across a room

meet

Heart pounding hard

connection

Body temperature rises

attraction

Time simply stops

desire

Music pulsates loudly

want

Day’s worries forgotten

bliss

Crowd blocks view

upset

Crowd clears away

lost

Eyes turn downward

tears
