That Moment


It’s that moment when

One innocent smile.

Can take your breath away.

Knowing from then on

He holds your hearts deepest desires.

 

It’s that moment when

Your heart dances

On every word they say.

When none are needed

Yet so much is said

In one gentle touch.

 

It’s that moment when

He grabs your hand,

Your fingers intertwine into one.

The warmth from his hand

Stirs deep within.

 

It’s that moment when,

You gaze into those incandescent eyes

Sparkling like a clear night sky.

Looking but can’t believing

What stands before you,

Is really yours.

 

It’s that moment when

You’re so close,

You hear their heart beating

Entrancing you with its alluring serenade.

A feeling so strong

It can bring you to your knees

Yet raise you to the heavens. 

 

It’s that moment when

Reality fades.

The world is but nothing

For your world is right before you.

All barriers dissolved

In a perfect match.
