Another stranger
Yet not unknown
A passing glance
Imprinted on the soul
An indescribable warmth
Yet an anxious joy
A cloak of comfort
I could not avoid
An explosion of energy
Penetrating every nerve
A feeling undeniably fixed
As every part of me yearns
A tether of a sort
I could not escape
Every ounce of me pulling towards
Magnetic, like fate
My vision is blurred
Except where my focus is you
Nothing else matters
In an instant I knew
It might have been the sweaty palms
The simple words that I got wrong
A rush that blushed my cheeks and palms
Suddenly enthralled with a love so strong
A once upon a time
A wish come true
An answered prayer
When I found you
