To someone special. He knows who he is. Trust me when I say he deserves this and more.

that first time I really met him
he smiled at me like
I was worth something more
than just a fleeting meeting between
two sort-of acquainted strangers
that would never happen again.
and I wanted to know so much about this boy
who made my stomach flip
and my blood rush
and my mind feel like it couldn’t put together
a single coherent sentence
or meaningful thought
(other than kissmekissmekissme.)

I wanted to know everything I could;
his name, all of it, and how it would taste on my tongue,
because I was sure it would be just as beautiful as he was;
the last time he cried and why
so next time it happened he could have my shoulder and my sympathy;
whether or not he had ever smiled at another awkward girl that
and if it had made her feel like she could do something of worth in this world,
the same way I did every time he looked my way.

I wanted to be his only one.

and sometimes I idly think about how we must look together
(two crazy hippie kids)
and I can’t help but feel he sees the me in me
no one else knows.

this doesn't feel finished.
maybe that's because we aren't finished.

That first meeting when you simply know that this is special, loved your lines, the image of this awkward girl
wanting to know more............feeling that deep rooted sense of a bond.........and later feeling he see's you deep inside where others may have missed it.
Very loving and tender............perfect title.

Nothing is every really finished in our life, most certainly not that chance at love. Well written my dear, I could feel the emotion flow with every word. Bravo.

True love is a blessing. I think that no matter what happens in the future, as long as you both have that memory, you can prevail. Thank you & my other half thanks you too. : )
