puppy love

i can
tell they're in love.
just by
the way
he's holding her,
one arm
around her waist,
the other petting
her hair,
like you might do
with a Persian cat.
she has a finger
wrapped
around his belt loop
and is leaning
into his neck.
they've recently
made love
it seems,
or are about to for
the third
time today.
you can see it in their
eyes,
that happy
glazed look, tired,
but not
completely out of it.
i remember those
days.
