Spades

In those eyes I can tell
Sometimes is so evident,
When they fall helpless,
In love
With all that I do
As if it came easy and natural to you

At others? Not so much
You float, like I grace
You share, like I bless
Uncontrollably
If you only knew the difference
Between the two.

I am confirmed that one day you will
If not this life time, I am sure
In the next.

One can only bump heads in a game
So many times in a round
Before they allow their partner
Or cut themselves.
