You were a passing ship <br />In the night. <br />At once a momentary delight. <br />(With a shadow of a fright) . <br />The free untamed spirit of youth! <br />Dangling free. <br />Scaring the old man in me. <br />Someone said like fatal attraction. <br />One could be drawn in. <br />Gossips whispered, <br />Better to stay on the straight and narrow. <br />Might have sounded more honest. <br />From all you`s. <br />You became overnite, <br />Someone i would probably <br />Never see again. <br />My attraction to you, <br />Not physical, <br />Only intellectual <br />Such things don`t form <br />Lasting lust.<br /><br />Peter Vealey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dreamboats/
