When I was only hoping for love to find me,
You showed up and though I was attracted,
I didn't really express my interest
But I was really considering it
Only the fear of rejection held me back
Some time went by and I still had you under my watch
I didn't rush,for I didn't wanna crash
But as time elapsed,your presence started to give my blood some rush every time I saw you
Your laughters and giggles tickled me in ways I can hardly express
Nature has its way of doing things,
I later realized that the the interest was mutual
I risked it all and found a way of accessing your contact and shot for gold

I still remember how nervous I was the first time we talked face to face
I still remember how relaxed it made me feel when I first held your hand
The warmth of our first hug still lingers around my soul
The sweetness of our first kiss and the excitment that it came with shall surely forever be in my memory
I still remember how I was hesitant about saying "it"
Saying it that "I love you"
For I wanted to first be sure that I was gonna hand my fragile heart to the right person
Hearts do break and when they do,it surely hurts
I have experienced this hurt before and it was almost fatal
I got back and am now extra cautious about whom am gonna trust with its custody
We got to know each other more and I started to believe that you were something good for me,
Like a magical remedy
At this point,I knew I was ready
Ready to ride with you till wherever fate would lead us
Love is real
