First Sight Ephemera

You’re like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again. - Maggie Stiefvater, Shiver

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Some say love at first sight can’t be.
But, in your eyes, I found my life.
Dazzling lights, wilder than the sea.
With you, there was no grief or strife.

At our first touch, I felt hearts stir.
Some say love at first sight can’t be.
Your kindness I’ll always prefer.
We were so eager and carefree.

Loving, though we might disagree.
I’ll always recall that first look.
Some say love at first sight can’t be.
Now, I can read you like a book.

You’re my love, my joy and my hope.
One look at you just set me free.
Without you, I clearly couldn’t cope.
Some say love at first sight can’t be.
