LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT


I was seduced by your aura , And trapped by the look in your eyes As we hit the walls , driven by the burning desire for each other. Your leg locks me in and I feel at home , And I remember that it is not lust but the synchronisation of our beating hearts that led us here. And if my heart could speak , it would say "I will never let you go" And as we move to the welcoming door and your back rests against it My mind is entranced by the words emanating from your lips and the tightening of your grip. You look comfortable with me , And so am I with you And as we move to the windowsill The moonlight adorns your skin and the streetlights flicker in amazement , And the streets are quiet Heavy breathing occupies the silence and as we lay on the bed , I figured I'd almost forgotten how you looked earlier today , When I saw you for the first time And it was just us , Watching the sun set and give us permission to enter the night You said nothing and I understood everything And at that moment , I fell for you
