What A Fabulous Acquaintance
by
Fadi Ayoub

I just met you the other day and what a butterfly you were
The way you moved your hands blew my mind away
Your blond hair, your blue eyes… the words, the smile, and the laugh,
Frankly it is you that I like
Hour after Hour we talked… phones got hot from what we shared
Word after word and the words kept on finding their way
…And you still wonder whether it is true, or fake!

They say: "there is no fire without a smoke"
And I ask you to follow your instincts
We just met the other day and what a butterfly you were
We were in sink…I thought of what you wanted to say
And you knew what I wanted to say
You knew exactly what was going through my head
Before I could say anything, you whispered the words:
"Unbelievable feelings we share, yet protective of our souls must we stay!"
And you still wonder whether it is true or fake!
You even ask: "Are we for real or is it just another dream?"

Sweeter than sweet, like you I will never meet
Read between the lines, embedded feelings are not hard to find
Read between the lines…
You will be at ease to trust your feelings and not to mind
Read between the lines
May one day those lines become witnesses before god
Read between the lines
May be you will find what will help you decide
Read between the lines
You will be at ease to say what we both can't wait to say
But still…
Protective of our souls must we stay!
