The One

A poem on love at first sight

The hair falls down
Your eyes peer from beneath
My heart flutters through my knees
Dreaming of your white gown

1,2,3,4
My pules raises even more
Moving so fast
I can’t see past

Your kindness
Your brightness
Your ever pleasing sense of breath
I wish that I was next

I know who you are
You’re the one I’ve been looking for
The one who could show me more
The one who I’d leave early for

Parties
Weddings
Anything you need me for

A shoulder to cry on
A friend to lean on
A meaning to hold to
A feeling to define you

I’ll be the one
To depend on
I’ll be the one
You can shine on

From now and to the end
I will never pretend
That my heart doesn’t flutter
Whenever I hear you mutter

A soothing melody
Sung so lovingly
Of bass strummed so heavenly
In need of acoustic company

To fill out the other half of your groove
So we’re finally able to move
Throughout the world
With hands held around a pearl

The hair falls down
Your eyes peer from beneath
My hands reach out to your cheeks
Moving your hair back to its place

We see eye to eye
Our cheeks flush
Our hearts touch
A lover’s cry
