this is the way I fall in love



eye contact that goes on forever

rich low voice on the telephone

"I love you", way too soon

a song that reaches to the sky

drunken confessions in a dorm room

urgent kisses in a stairwell

body up against mine on the dance floor

"I'll never hurt you, Anne."

the heady scent of sweat and aftershave

and promises never kept.
