The Glitter In Her Eyes
So what exactly was it that sparked my attention?
It’s hard to succinctly define;
Certainly she is a beautiful lady,
And she has a very sharp mind.
But, I have witnessed beauty in the female form before;
And I have been impressed with many an intelligent girl;
There was just something different about her;
Something that made her stand out above the rest;
Something that mesmerized me;
Inspired me;
Poured desire inside of me.
This should come as no surprise – it was the magic in her eyes!
A glitter of excitement with a glimmering of hope;
Pulling me closer to her like I was lassoed by a rope.
That is, indeed, what set her apart;
That is, indeed, what ignited the spark.
The glitter in her eyes.
