Circumstances unusual

Typical of this 21^st century generation

Everything computerized so impersonalized

But I met him

Conversation was good but centered on him

Nervousness, arrogance, wasn’t sure what the cause

But something still intrigued me so I continued without much pause

And I learned about him

Time passing was short

But in person was our goal

Spontaneous trip was planned

When I saw him

All I could do was smile as the butterflies came alive in my belly

And when he smiled back my legs turned to jelly

We played the five of us on the playground as natural as could be

I was feeling him

More talking and sharing and laughing and playing

Looked deep in his eyes and knew what he was thinking

Leaned in closer and I had never felt anything so sweet

I wanted him

Late night talks and stories we continue to share

Into the depths of our souls questions poked with much care

Obstacles from the past so similar it’s uncanny

I could appreciate him

Storm clouds gathered and the rain began to fall

Swallowed all pride to let each other in and I answered the call

Facing demons daily a lesser man couldn’t handle

I had no choice but to respect him

Want him by my side and he values my opinion

Makes me feel like I am the most beautiful woman in the nation

Looks past my flaws and cares to know where I have been

Desires to help me grow and has no problem showing his appreciation

And for that reason I can say

That I adore him
