The One

His eyes were like stars shining in the moonlight
 His face was a glow as he stood there in the night
 My heart was a pounding as he touched my hand
 I felt my toes crinkle in the sand

 We began to talk and reminisce of the old
 We soon began to realize it was getting cold
 So he put his arms around me to keep me warm
 And at that very minute my heart was transformed..

 As we looked deep in each others eyes
 I was so happy I began to cry
 He wiped the tear from my face
 And at that very moment my heart began to race

 This was something I never felt before
 I couldn't believe how it made me desire more
 As the sun began to go down and it became dark
 I could definitely feel that this was more than a spark

 As we lay there on the beach in the night
 He looked at me with such delight
 It felt so great lying there in his strong arms
 Not feeling fear safe from all harm

 As he gently placed his hand on my cheek
 All of a sudden I became very meek
 He slowly leaned in to kiss me and I was sublime
 I knew there was something different this time

 He spoke gently and said I have loved you for a long time
 But I never thought that you could be mine
 Now that you are here it feels like a dream
 Something out of a picture book or a scene

 You are so fine and ravishing such a beauty I see
 For many years my heart has been drawn to thee
 Touch me my love and let me know this isn't surreal
 For my heart is spinning like a record on a reel

 As he took my hand and we walked along the shore
 I knew he would be a man I would always adore
 My mind was thinking of how wonderful this felt
 Being with someone that made my heart melt

 At last I knew this was the one for me
 And when we kissed I knew we both agreed
 Now were living happily ever after
 In a life filled with love and laughter
