that sultry sparkle

i knew there was fire
when you glanced at me standing
alone in the wings

fire i had not known
in corners of heart or soul
began burning bright

drawn to center aisle
like strange magic we embraced
and all earth trembled

a curtain opened
an unforgettable scene
we merged with the sky

you and i were lost
riding a crescent of waves
within origins

mystic origins
drawn to this reality
quite by accident

a coincidence
this combination of souls
strangely kindled by

that sultry sparkle
endless in infinite depths
of your deep dark eyes
