The First Time

The first time I saw your face my heart
Melted like divine chocolate melting
In the creases of my hands.

The first time we spoke I got butterflies
In the pit of my stomach and I thought
They were going to break free.

The first time I heard your voice I swear
I felt my heart stop in my chest; beating
Miles per minute skipping beats.

The first time I heard you say my name
A sense of warmth spread over me
From fingertips to my toes.

The first time we said I love you I felt
Like I had found the missing piece
Of my heart’s puzzle.
