Charmed

He's prepared this daydream for me—
Allows me to see him for this moment.
Gloriously adorned,
The universe hangs
Glittering around his neck.
I am stunned,
For he is stunning,
I quiver to think how badly I've underestimated him,
(And spoken so casually.)
But he is so above
All of these conditions,
Detached from the results,
Yet, within my nature, so at home.
He takes my hand,
Curls it to his lips,
And gives me the tiniest, little peck.

It's a good thing that’s all he gave me,
For it’s more than I can handle.
I sense that he has more to give
When I am able to bear.
The promise is Titan planetary.
It dangles on his necklace.
But for now, a smooth worn pebble will do,
And a ribbon for my hair.
