I know this seems out of the blue
and kind of random, but
I can’t help but notice
the way you tilt
your head towards the sky
the way you wait
for the stars to blink back
and the way you tremble
with desire like I do–
pardon my rudeness
I can’t help but interrupt
your skyward gazing and fervent wishing
but I knew; I knew from the instant
that I saw you, I wanted to
hold you by the hand
and share your trepidation;
for dreams are stronger
when dreamed together
and life will be so much sweeter
when we dream together
