“I wait with silent passion for one gesture, one glance from you.” Rumi
I can feel you watching and
if I turn around I know I’ll catch you
pretending not to but we never
say a word to spoil this endless
covert game we lovers play.

Love Rumi’s “silent passion” … tinderbox, just waiting to be lit … your poem captures that so well.

I prefer watching my wife in everyday life when she feels unobserved. But maybe this was about something else…

A mixture of motives really, that watching which takes in the other.
