I started a trend
Since hearing a word
Laid eyes on a friend
A sense caught me reeling
No putting back in
My eyes stealing jaffas
Down cinema aisle
My hands itched to hold
Secured under thighs
I smiled uncontrollably
In all the sad scenes
Mind danced the tango
In moments serene
I dared ask another
Calendar moment
A hug and a whisper
Dazed in her glow
Nonsensical laughs
Happy cry the way home
Pouring heart out
To a friend
On the phone
Like a Kinder surprise
A taste and a trinket
Never too old
For love's sinking feeling
