casting about, out of my depth seeing you from the cast of millions,
that myriad of stars, did we see it in our stars, we star crossed lovers
as we crossed the room?
your face stuck out of the crowd from the crowd of crowing crows.
preening in their self importance which held no importance for you.
looking with stars in my eyes casting about to find one word.
you put your finger to my lips speaking with your eyes.
so I cast off, would you follow?
telling you sanctuaries not on offer, no security, of that be sure.
just a castaway, off to distant shores, be secure in that knowledge
that nothing’s scheduled, my agenda’s not hidden, for I have non.
that I will cherish and love you, standing solid by your side
in solidarity, telling you that is my only surety, of that you can be sure
if you’ll let me, for my heart is to let to one careful owner.
