i fell in love with
the sound of your breath
the beat of your heart
your devotion and strength
i fell in love with
the basin of your ador
the fluency of your speech
to get others I implore
i fell in love with
the way your eyes saw me
never with reckless abandonment
but with a gentle guarantee
i fell in love with
both a man and a boy
to have one but also the other
i\'ve never known such joy
i fell in love with
a desperate, fleeting moment
one that must be tethered down
with a forbearing temperament
i fell in love with
you
