From the first moment I laid eyes upon you my heart felt a tug,
A pull from something deep in the past or perhaps another life.
Each passing day it seemed to grow stronger,
Drawing something hidden deep for so long.
Cracks forming in walls kept strong and thick,
Protecting a spark I felt never would grow.
My soul had been a cold and dark place,
Insulating that which I was afraid to show.
I had resigned myself to walk a path that was chosen for me,
To walk it resolutely, steadily into what I did not know.
How can it be, this thing that has come to pass so quickly.
Passions flames filling a place purposely kept cold.
It was the only way I felt i could face the road I could see before me,
The only way to travel a trail few can and keep their head held high.
Then a pair of shining eyes and a glowing smile walked into my life,
Drawing feelings from me that I forgot I had.
Know this My Dear One,
I will always thank you for showing me that I never did forget.
