A Love Almost Lost

It may not be love at first sight;
But being with you, feels so right.

Boys have come and faded away;
Love in my heart for you, now here to stay.

The grasp you have on me, a fire built inside;
Trying to break free, not letting the flames hide.

Looking back on almost losing you, I realize true emotions take time;
Love is such a wonderful experience, so why treat it like a crime?
