Into conversation

** into conversation **
Look into the conversation
Words brushing past
Strangers in a strange place
Against the music seek to face
The other messages sent in stance
Or in eyes or in thoughts
We never get to read
Must make do with words flighty
Across this strangers space between
Where we are and where unforeseen
Future may place in loving tune
For all the fireworks of touch
Exploration of the rut
Our words in crossing the path
To future or to past
Our words find engrossing enough
To believe sincerity of our calling
As into conversation falling
Rhythms of a stranger beguiling
Giving hope for tomorrows fairer
Unless you prove as others before
To be of false gold and forged promises
In deed fail to hold true
To words we swap this night
All playing cards face up on the table
Seeking some special moments insight
Into where these words may lead us
To joy and love or love and grief.
