At Least I Know Now

When eyes meet from across the room
And immediately something inside your heart and soul happens
Have you ever felt that feeling?
It was the first time for me
I wouldn’t call it love at first sight
I wouldn’t call it lust at first sight


I would call it
Relish at first sight
Spark at first sight
Adoration at first sight


I had never felt it before
It was amazing


He had kind, dark eyes
A big smile
Beautiful smile
Dark hair
Creamy skin
And scars on his face that made him even more alluring to me


Knowing what you want out of life is wonderful
Understanding even 25% of who you are is admirable
Having a plan for yourself is excellent
Believing in the LORD is marvelous


I hate admitting I fall fast
But I do
There are not many men these days I find appealing
Appealing enough to consider


All I have is an image of you in my mind
I can not find a picture
I don’t even know your last name
You still have so much mystery to you
even after talking until 5 or 6 in the morning


The thought of seeing you again is exhausting
because I want it so intensely


It is not desperation
It’s a longing to be close to something new
Exciting
Hopeful
And beautiful


We have few things in common, but then how did we talk for forever?
It’s the strangest thing


It’s only been 5 days
and I feel like a little girl


The realist and scornful adult say be careful
But half of it has been sucked out of me and replaced with a 17 year old girl
He makes me feel young
He makes me feel alive


I was so happy with life before I saw him
I was confident were my life was going before I saw him


I am so happy with my life knowing him
I am confident were my life is going knowing him


I will be happy with my life after him
I will be confident were my life is going after him


Preparing the heart and mind for success is equally important as preparing for failure when it comes to love


It’s too early to tell what will happen
It’s too early to begin to be 100% loyal


It’s never too early to dream
It’s never too early to be 100% loyal as a friend


All I can ask is when will I see you again?
I don’t want your face to fade in my mind
Your smile surely will not


All I know is this
The feeling of seeing you for the first time was like no other I have ever felt
I can only hope it was the same for you
If not, then I wish it upon you later on in life
And if you already have, then I wish you hold in your heart like a precious gift and  appreciate it
Be humbled by it


If nothing comes of this
I am thankful for that moment
I am thankful for the hopeful spark God put back into me


God has such amazing ways of letting you know that something great is about to come
If not now
then down the road
If not with him
then with someone else


At least I know now…
