Version # 2

[stretchingtoyou]

----------------------------------
Over the foam of my latte
I look across the table at you,
the collar of your wool coat
framing your chin, which is
Darkened by a shadow unshaven.
Almond eyes look out
through thick black frames -
At me.
White shows
through parted lips
when you, with honest words, ask the question,
May I have
you?

----------------------------------

Keep dreaming and I find him.
