*

the moment after
I’ve smiled at you
for the first time -

the air suddenly full of sparkles,
words swirling around me
like little flames,
incomprehensible

how quickly
everything changes.

one startled heartbeat
and you became a flame
in my mind

slowly
I am learning
that protecting this light

is all I want to do -

so much of everything
means so little
in comparison

only those lights
that guide me towards you
are relevant
