the first time I looked at you
it felt very familiar
not like déjà vu
more of a kindred spirit
you weren’t a stranger
even though I didn’t yet know your name
I knew your smile lit up the whole room
and your eyes twinkle with the same hopes
and ambition which pushes me every day
the first time I looked at you
I fell in love, lost to a little heart
never desiring to go back
to the way things use to be
