Love's first sight
Recall when we met, I looked in your eyes
I felt my heart jump as if the world stopped
Then started back up, it was a surprise
I would guess that my jaw probably dropped
It's a new world now, my lonely days gone
The future now holds me embracing you
I feel like an ugly duckling turned swan
Finally believing in love that's true
Was there communication in our gaze
Was subconscious speaking to the other
If so it will be heartfelt all our days
It is not something told to another
Just a feeling of warmth and connection
In a love sweeter then a confection
