For the first time in darkness eyes twinkled
I discovered charm, it held my pupils
Hostage
Nerves sounded out alarms we all know well
To dampen hands and make hearts swell.
For the first time a smile of sweetness, warm like the sun
Surrounded emotion in a magic cape
The mind whispered- “run”
But my shoe laces lay undone,
Caught on twinkling stars and thoughts of true love
Eyes flashed, steaks of colors painted the air
Red, what was felt
Yellow, pondered cards dealt
Green, how we acted
Blue, what we wanted
In purple we flaunted
What we found, for a while kept veiled
Then, blasted from tree tops to distant sails.
From right here right now, until the future avows
Our surrender, enthralling eyes promised vows.
