You Know When You Know

She loved me before she even knew me,
She gave me her heart!
She told me she loved me,
Via a text message after only a few days.
Yes, that first kiss was a kiss,
She literally sucked my tongue from my face.
She was giving me a message.
We talked for more weeks,
I was in the south of Portugal,
She was up north.
She wanted me to visit the north for the holidays but I had no money.
But we still talked.
We had plans to meet the first time
but the ex husband made a complication.
No harm. 
When we finally met,
We met.  
We made love for the first time and it was magical. 
We went to a local bar and a woman friend saw and greeted me,
And my woman grabbed and pinched my fingers.
so hard and subconsciously said,
"You are MINE".
I said, “Okay”.
We made love a second time
outside at the fisherman's rest looking at the moon.
At least I was,
She was crying,
What...??? 
We went home for the night
and in the morning I went outside for space. 
I sat on a hilltop and drank two bottles of beer
and asked my God what direction in life I should walk.
One week later I was on a train going north, 
Two years later we are married and very much in Love!
