Special Love

I’ll always remember the first time I saw you sweetheart - Despite being almost 
eight years now it seems like only yesterday…

I saw you walk in - Standing there taller than everyone else - Our eyes met - Only 
for an instant - Those silver grey eyes of yours seemed to look straight into my 
soul - In those precious few seconds - time seemed to stand still - And I felt a 
strange warmth surround me - somehow I knew something very special had 
come to pass - This was something I never felt before - As I look back now…I 
realize it was “Love At First Sight” There are no other words that could explain 
what I felt then or now - It’s something out of a romance novel.

I have seriously tried to stop lovin’ you Sharyl - I ran from it - It always seems to 
find me - All I have to do is see your face or hear your voice…And the love that I’ve 
ALWAYS felt for you - Which I’ve promised myself was gone -  Comes crashing 
down upon me like a ton of bricks - And there I am caught in the web of your love -
 All over again - Both of us too proud to admit what we feel - Yet both of us smart 
enough to never want to lose - what we know is - Truly a special love.
