Finding someone who is very special.

Sitting there
Seeing you across the room
You smile my way
That’s all it takes
And I know
You are something
Very special
You capture
My heart
Fill it with passion
Giving life a new look
Because you have
A way about you
But there’s so much more
The tears flow instantly
There’s something
About you
And my heart only knows
Just from seeing you
Across the room

    Yes!! When you see someone for the first time. I remember those range of emotions. Too bad for most they don’t last for the entire relationship. This was an excellent poem. Brought me back to what use to be.
