Until I Did
I didn’t notice you,
Until I did.
I didn’t want you,
Until I did.
I didn’t notice your absence from my life,
Until I did.
It was your brother
That caught my eye,
If I’m honest.
Tall,
Dark,
And strong,
With eyes so blue.
But it was you,
That came to me
Open heart, so full of love,
A joy for life,
Infectious,
Intoxicating.
Your deep brown eyes
Melted my soul.
I stood before you,
Awestruck.
Breathless,
Helpless,
Reaching desperately for an anchor
A ground.
Something,
Anything,
To restore my senses.
And at that moment,
You reached for me,
I reached back.
I was chosen,
And I chose too.
Hearts and minds connected
In an instant.
I had no idea you were mine,
Until I did.
I didn’t love you,
Until I did.
I didn’t know I needed you
Until I did.
And now I do.
