i.
I may not have noticed you the first time,
Or the second.
But when I did,
That smile hit me like a freight train.
ii.
When you first pulled up,
In that grey suit of yours,
With that little pink tie
And you kissed me slow and soft
I knew you weren't a mistake.
iii.
I gave you all I had,
Everything,
Without a single regret.
iv.
That night you lost your keys,
And we got stuck at the reservoir
In the middle of the night
I pretended to be mad.
But that was the night
I knew I loved you.
v.
I wrote about you a lot.
I always wanted to show you,
But I was too scared.
I still have the poems,
In an envelope somewhere.
vi.
The night you said I love you,
I almost cried for joy.
I really did cry
When you said it again.
P.S.* These are all for you. There has been no one since, and no one before you either.
