ferris wheel

One day
long ago
you rode into my life
on thoughts unknown  
more passion than we knew what to do with
more sweat than we could handle
the time rolled on
as if we shared a seat on a ferris wheel

but too much maybe, too soon a chance
in a short turn, our lives took apart
separately

but wait, this wheel turns
full circle, and I find your eyes gazing to me
once again
the passion returns
slowly, in order
like we want
like we need

I wake, the curious sweat dripping from my brow
you're  back
I'm back
