Anticipation

A brush of hair
a sigh...
The sun setting in the west
slowly
gently
A glimpse of a dark eye
A smile

The smell of Fear
How sweet it is
Fear is Anticipation
not knowing
doubting
what you are
what you feel
what you sense
You sense danger
i am close

But i am not danger
i am no threat
i wish you well
Still, anticipation-fear
The smell from your sweat
how sweet
the smell of anticipation

i am here
the wait is over
