Poem inspired by Edward Hopper’s painting, Summer evening

The Rendez-Vous 

I arrived at the party

I knew that tonight would be different

And then I understood

A simple glance is sufficient

 

My heart began to pound

Suddendly, an urge invaded me

Hold you against me

And never let you go

 

And that’s when I realized

What your voice, your eyes, your gestures

Had woken in me

This love that I had lost

 

We danced together

We talked about everything and nothing

As if strong ties

Had always bound us together

 

Before the night escape, we stood there

We wondered what tomorrow would bring

And if these times

Were those of a night or those of a lifetime

 

Inspiré par ce tableau :

  

Summer evening
