.....

The moment I saw u from a distance
It felt as though my heart dropped to my stomach in an instance,
Without any form of resistance.

I could just about outline the frame of your tall physique.
Masculine from head to toe.
Your shoulders were broad;
Your chest lean with long arms outstretched on either side.
Dressed in black, my mind was hijacked.

My palms were sweaty and eyes were dazed.
My mind aborted, I felt as though I was being tortured.
Not physically but internally.
The thought of moving closer towards you was plaguing my mind uneasily.
Time had stopped. I was caught in this moment
captured and intrigued by your smile-so pleasant.

Walking closer, each step lasted a milestone.
Getting nearer, each breath heightened with exhilaration.
Taken by this unusual fascination,
leading me to get lost in your captivation.
A sudden rush of adrenalin pumped through my veins intoxicating my blood. From there it went on to flood my heart where it planted a feeling from which I could not depart.

By now we were just a few feet apart.
Within arms reach, our eyes in line with each other�s.
Within seconds I was trapped. Ur eyes had taken me aback.
They shined liked diamonds, from which I cud see the depth and intensity of the deepest oceans.
Your gaze captured me in a moment so beautiful
A moment in which I could live each day of my life-a feeling so soulful.

After looking away my eyes wondered.
Your lean chest called for my head to rest against it.
Your gripping arms invited my body to be held tightly within them.

I watched your arms raise n reach out for me.
Within seconds I was pulled towards you in a tight grip.
My heartbeat raced, accelerating faster.
I could feel the warmth of your breath brush against my face as u exhaled for longer.

Each cell in my body was awakened by your gentle touch.
I could hear the rhythmic sound of your heartbeat as I rested my head on your chest.
If only this moment could be stretched.
I felt feelings I could not verbally express.

Your hands found their way to mine.
I felt your fingers slide between my knuckles.
You held them tightly yet with a gentle grip that made me feel so safe and secure.
Then suddenly you held me tighter,
like a silent sense of reassurance of a strong fighter.

Eventually after a moment that felt like a lifetime,
Yet still too short for me to sublime
Your hands slowly released me from your tight grip.
Yet you still held me close to you with a sense of ease
Abolishing all my pain n worries.

I felt your fingers winding their way around my curls.
Softly pulling them down with an intent gaze as they sprung back up.
You took a strand in your hand n held it against d softness of your face.
Your closeness made me feel as though I was lost in another place
Whilst I was still held in your warm embrace.

I explored every segment of your definably structured face.
Your jaw line so strong,
Covered by facial hair only a few millimillimeters.
I could still feel d softness of your cheeks beneath the roughness of your hair.
At this moment life felt so unfair,
Knowing that we had been apart for so many years in despair.

I stared in to your brown eyes.
I�m sure the left was smaller then the right.
I stroked my fingers against your forehead.
With skin so soft it felt as though I was holding a satin cloth.
I ran my fingers thru your hair.
Starting at your forehead and ending at your nape.
I did not want to escape from this intoxicating state.

My eyes strayed down to your lips.
The bottom one was fuller then the top.
Blood had rushed to them giving a rouge effect.
This moment truly felt more than perfect.
Yours eyes were strongly transfixed on mine
As your mouth opened and your lips spread,
Into a glowing smile that blew me away.
I instantly noticed your perfectly white teeth.
They were like pearls shining in the night sky.

I knew right then I had to confess.
This feeling was far too strong for me to repress.
Your arms moved down the sides of my body and gripped my waist.
I looked deep into your eyes to find feelings I hoped you had inside.

I finally told you that I was in love with you.

Seconds felt like years,
My eyes started to well up tears.
Please don�t unveil my greatest fears.
Silence was all that I could hear.

I felt suffocated,
Suddenly there was not enough air to breath.
My stomach tightened, my heart almost sectioned.

I felt your hands on me.
You held my arms against my sides and turned me around
In one quick and swift movement.
However, I continued to feel poignant.

Your arms reached back down around my waist
and rested on my stomach.
I felt your head nestle against my right shoulder.
I was in a state of confusion?
Could this moment get any colder?

(Alas I heard your voice.
A whisper like the sound of wind
Brushing through the autumn air.
It was music to my ears when I heard you answer my prayers.

�I love u too,� were the exact words that came from your heart
I knew right then that this was the start.
A new beginning
Two hearts inevitably combined as one.
Our life had finally begun...X)

(I tried to search from deep within your eyes.
Find the answer my self.
But they were expressionless.
I felt so anxious and restless.
I could not handle this pain of suspense,
which may lead me to be worthless.

You no longer held my gaze;
Instead you gave me a gentle yet painful smile
And looked down at d concrete floor
For what felt like a very long while.

I knew right then what I would hear.
You cared for me, that was clear.
The love was there, but it was the love that I feared.
Not the love my heart ached for
And my ears yearned to hear.

I still found it from somewhere deep within
To give you a smile.
But I could not hold back the stream of tears that found their way down my eyes. Life was unfair.
I knew the pain would always be there,
But at least ill walk away knowing that I tried
And that you do care...X)
