I Knew

The first time I laid eyes on you Met you for the first time I Knew. It was something about the way you smiled But I hesitated, unsure It couldn’t be, my mind is playing tricks. We’ll be friends. When you were sitting next to me telling me all the things that I already knew On your knees telling me that you knew me in such a short time. I Knew. But I rejected it, it couldn’t be. Things got rough, it wasn’t the right time My hesitation was right, you weren’t the one. Time passed but I could never find a man So perfectly imperfect like you. I could not find a man who seemed sensitive yet strong, Attracted me yet repelled me In whose arms I could relax Who looked me in the eyes and got me lost. I Knew, but waited. When the time came and you called I heard your voice and Knew. It was worth the wait.
