Quatrain of Feeling Flushed

Feeling Flushed - it happens

I anticipated a love quest when
our eyes met and thoughts
went out of
control,

What I saw and what I felt
were meshed together
like two lovers on a
stroll.

With the weight of lovability
pushing down on redemptive
longing, my yearning was
crushed,

It was you, locking eyes with
me, that made the face of
fondness feel, oh so
flushed.
