Touching

I touched your hand and never knew
I would suddenly fall in love with you
I never realized in a single moment
My dream would finally come true 

I did not anticipate the serenity
Which falling in love would bring
Yet when I embrace you in my arms
I felt the joy that makes one sing

Every moment when you are next to me
My heart feels it has found heaven  
I never thought I would feel this way
As many amazing feelings would begin

I never knew after kissing your lips
My heart would come to know such pain
I never thought I would be sad and happy
When my heart would speak your name

When I find myself waiting for you
So anxious are the times embracing me
But all is made to become much better
By the joy in your smile I always see

I never imagined when I embraced you 
My heart would be quickly swept away
Yet I found that magic moment to happen
As I received your gift of love today.
