First Look

I remember the first time I saw you
The first time your eyes met mine
And when I looked deep inside them
I saw your hurt, your fear, lost time

I didn't dare to look away
From your revealing gaze
I suddenly felt a dire connection
Something about you simply amazed

I saw so much in your eyes' sparkle
I sensed you were wounded, in pain
I wanted to make all your hurt go away
I wanted to make you happy again

And then you smiled
True with just a little tremble
And right then, I truly knew
That loving you would be simple

I looked and saw how much you needed
You were just out of place
I wanted to just keep on looking
Into the trust I saw on your face

Something about you
Made me want to reach out, to cry
And even though I knew not even your name
I felt, for you, I would die

So next time you gaze into my soul
With your eyes, who have so much to tell
I hope you find truth in my gaze
And you'll know me just as well.

**Thanks for looking into my soul.**
