stolen glances

i see the way
you look at me
when you think
i'm not watching.
and truth be told,
i like it.

you watch my mouth
as i speak
or smile
or don't.

you watch my hips
as they sway
when i walk
or don't.

i like the desire
i see
in your eyes
when you look at me
when you think
i'm not watching.

can you see
the desire in mine
when i look at you?
