That Moment

I dont know when it was exactly
That I began to feel for you
But I do know how exponentially those feelings grew
I could never fathom you feeling remotely the same
But before my departure
You took my hands in yours
So affectionately, so tenderly
And you broke into a smile
And looked deep into my eyes
For that moment, you left me breathless
As if the moon had embraced the night
Or the ocean had clasped hands with the shore..
Time and space froze
And despite the din, all I could hear was my heartbeat
You said nothing, but I understood
It was just you and me, in that moment...

I had never seen your eyes so bright before
Nor look at me with such passionate interest
There was a glow about you
As though you were luminous with joy
And I could feel it in your touch..
But your smile, your most charming smile
Was what enthralled me the most
I could stay engaged in this moment for hours...

I felt my entire being become immersed
Immersed in an overwhelming love for you
Never had I imagined, that I could love another with such intensity
But here you were
With your soft, warm hands, enveloping mine
And your captivating smile
It was all I could do to restrain my arms from flinging out to embrace you..

You looked at me so differently than before
As though a soaring love coursed through you too
And in that infintesimal fragment of time
You flipped my world on its head
And changed my life..
You were a miracle right before me
Unfolding..
Your soft gaze held me spellbound
I felt our hearts touch
And with every beat now
Our love grew stronger...

The moment flickered and suddenly cracked
And I turned to leave
As I walked away, I realized I had your love with me and you possessed mine
And I knew that our hearts would always be connected.
I pictured you in my mind and felt your smile,
Your love.
I can never forget that moment
When you altered my existence for all time.

Across Infinity, those few seconds are my most precious.

No matter how far I go, or for how long
I will love you Always
An Always that holds forever
Because when I fell in love with you
It was like throwing a piece of ice in to water
And allowing it to melt
And I dissolved into you
To become one with you
Inseparable.
