The First NightA Poem by Andre Peterson
It could have been the coldest December night but I felt so warm.
I looked to the stars above feeling so alone. It was then I saw you looking at me. The first time I laid eyes on you. So long ago. So young. You looked so sad. Then our eyes locked for a few moments. It felt like a century. I never wanted to be so close to anyone else before. A fire inside of me ignited. And I realized we were still staring at each other. You looked away first. Jumped into a car and left. I never thought I would see you again. A year later there you were. Eyes bright. The biggest smile I have ever seen. Just the sweetest little thing. Now time has past. I never have been more sure. You are all I ever wanted. Each day I miss you more and more. © 2016 Andre Peterson |
