His Smile

Husband & young love

His Smile.

That was all it took.

He wandered into a crowded room.

He was all I could see. 

The room was a haze.

The people nothing but a mixture of colors.

He stood there not knowing what he would become.

The music became a silent echo.

The alcohol running through me stopped dead in it's tracks.

Nothing was ever going to taint the moment. 

The one memory I will never forget.

I myself didn't know what would become. 

All I knew was I could die that night after seeing his smile.

I knew that this was not your ordinary encounter. 

His smile seemed to give me a million questions. 

I wanted his attention. 

I wanted him to leave his sent lingering among-st me.

The night grew darker.

People found their ways home.

I was desperate to interact and his smile never stopped.

I took all chances.

His smile fueled my boldness. 

The night grew into minutes,

It was time to go.

He turned to me and I kissed him. 

I felt his smile. 

I engulfed his scent. 

It took just one smile.

I would wait eternity for this man. 

I waited a year.

A year to see his smile again...
