Create a poem that delves into what is communicated in moments of silence.

Just A Look

Just a look. That’s all I get. A glance, a peek. Seconds to convey All the things You long to say. Just a look. Brief and fleeting. Across the room. Telling me everything And nothing With your eyes. Just a look. A brilliant silence That echoes loud. Saying what couldn’t With just words Simple, meaningless words Just a look. It beckons me. Rise and follow. Down the hall Up the stairs Behind the door. Just a look. Power in your touch. Unspoken passions alight. Draw me close Hold me against The dark of night. Just a look. Nothing more. All we’ll be Now, forever more. Two strangers sharing Just a look.
