And It Hasn't Rested Since

When I saw you

That first moment

Everything else stopped

A hush fell upon my restless mind and thoughts

A busy place full of people

And I was another one of them,

Until you turned and looked at me

Suddenly everything else went

Dark like the night

And you were the only point of light in the universe

Except for me

I was light Too.

Breathing at peace and seeing something, someone otherworldly

I touched you for a brief moment

And a deep feeling stirred within me

Something woke

An intense passion to explore every imagining and idea that I had ever envisioned...

A feeling that had only tickled and teased at my senses

From time to time before that moment

Came to life that night

And it hasn't rested since.
