Disarmed
You were armed to the teeth
With something underneath
Disarmed by my smile
That goofy grin not yet yellow,
You ran away for miles
Losing your shoes in the mire.
Years later it was your turn
I was disarmed by your beauty,
But I ran to you not away
For yours is a beauty that beckoned me
Closer and closer still
Until nothing between us but time,
Time to let our love perfect,
Sweetening and intoxicating as
Years go by.
