Seeing you for the first time,

Nerves consumed me as I walked down the stairs.

You stepped out of the car, your tall, slender frame coming into view.

The smile that lit up your face,

the flowers you retrieved from your backseat.

Your allure was undeniable

My racing heart steadied as you approached,

hugging me like we’d known each other in a past life.

In that moment, I knew I was in love.

It confirmed everything I’d been feeling for you.

I knew then and there—I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you.

I’d give anything to experience seeing you for the first time again.
