A Glance, A Song

The first time I read your name in ink, My heart skipped a beat, I couldn’t think. A quiet tug, a pull I can’t explain, A whispered echo in my veins. Then I saw you in that crowded place, Among a thousand, you stood with grace. Your eyes caught mine, a sparkling light, And in that moment, the world took flight. Your words, they came, so soft, so clear, And when you spoke, my heart drew near. Then you sang, and oh, what a sound, A melody that spun me round. We talked of Rumi, fate at play, Like the stars had guided our words that day. From that moment, I watch you when you stray, Though you've hurt me, I can't turn away. You wear that jacket, so dark, so sleek, A sight so gorgeous, my heart feels weak. I wish I could tell you all that’s true, But silence holds me, and I can't break through. So here’s my secret, hidden and bold— You're beautiful inside, outside, untold. In every glance, in every move, You're perfection, a rhythm, a love I can’t lose.
