When you looked—that once
The connection was lightning, electric,
A current—
Refusing to be held back.

Your blue eyes fluttered
Down, dark eyelashes—I knew  that moment,
I would go
On missing their power.


It was an electric
Moment—when my eyes met your hazel ones,
Magical—
A string tying us together.

I looked away—just
For one moment, but instantly I missed
The feeling
Of being so connected.


Is it real— that sense?
A feeling—pulling us so powerfully.
Could it last—could you
Be the one to make the change?

Breaking a cycle
of hurt. Changing the life that is fated
To be yours.
Break out of your shell.


A feeling I have, I
Have to break out— I just can't be
The girl I used to be—
Scared, timid, shy,
I need to break the box

Something pulls me
Towards the open door way—  a force
Too strong to fight,
And I surrender.


You are strong, love.
Even I
Can see that.

You appear and as always
Take my breath.

Steal it like a thief
Would take something beautiful—
Just to prove
It is worth having.

I guess what I am
Trying to say is—
You are
Lovely.


Lovely.
The word
Bounces around
In my head, echoing
Like the most beautiful
Thing in the entire world.
Like your sparkling
eyes, gleaming
In the light.
Beauty.


For a minute, my tongue
is tied.
Did I really just say that,
And are you smiling?

Things seem simple now,
but that first moment
is what I will always remember.
Electricity, pulling us together.

You are beautiful.
And I have hope for the future.
