Perfect Match

The birds are singing,
the sun is rising,
the sky is bathed in light.
I can't help smiling
at today's perfection.
The joy of my heart
has run over into reality.
Relatives brought us together
just a few months past.
Both of us were so shy and uncertain.
Our eyes locked,
our lips spoke words we didn't hear,
and in both hearts,
a smile was blooming.
Somehow I knew you were the one.
You caught my heart the first time
that I saw your smile.
Hour after hour passed,
we found we have so much in common.
The conversation slowed
every once in while
as our eyes locked again.

Your soft brown eyes
look deep within my hazel ones.
You see all the way into my heart.
There's no way
that you can misunderstand
the message written there.
I watchas your eyes light up.
Why is it so hard
for you to believe
that I love you?
A guy so handsome,
so sweet and kind,
how can girls just pass you by?
My speculation ceases
as I catch a glimpse
of the message written
on your own heart.
Your shy face draws ever nearer to mine,
and our lips meet in a slow sweet kiss.
Oh, Jacob, my Jacob,
how can the world not see
that you're the perfect match for me?
