You rushed into my life unexpectedly. If I didn't have my love for excitement and adrenilin, then I never would have set my eyes on you. But I did.

Once you set foot in my car and our eyes melted into each other. At that moment and so forth I was clung to you like a magnet.

We drifted apart for nearly a week, but in that week your eyes clung to another. I knew in my heart that I needed to know if our paths weren't just meant to cross once..

So there I was at your doorstep, not knowing what to expect. Then there you were, with your big blue eyes of yours staring down into mine. You were tall and gawky, and your height didn't fit you. You could barely even hold yourself straight up, not because you weren't strong enough too, but because there was a wall bearing you back.

My body was shaking, I knew this was our only chance to see if there was something in-between us and I didn't want to perish it. Once we got comfortable on your couch, stories started pouring out of our mouths. As i was spilling out these memories, I started to notice you gazing at me. When most people look at me they look Straight through me, not seeing anything at all. But when you look at me you stare right into my soul, gazing at it, giving it a reassuring smile of acceptance for everything It's done and is.
