"The journey is the reward."
- Steve Jobs
From across the room,
Two seemingly innocent souls feel a nudge.
You're in one corner,
I'm in my own and notice you.
Soon enough, our eyes meet.
Yours soften into a gentle smile,
While mine sparkle with hope
And thrill me with warm sensations.
Your eyes penetrate my aura and send
Secret callings to my heart.
An unseen force comes between us,
A deeper attraction pulls us together.
Closer, closer we seem to be drawn
'till our hands touch,
Emitting sparks of joy
As I feel I've found you.
Silently my eyes, my lips,
Silently call on to you.
You understand as I want you
To find me.
Then a butterfly
With wings strong as hope,
Colorful as song,
Come to rest.
Its touch gently graces
The petals of a young flower,
Invoking the sense of love
That had for so long been sought.
I now realize how strong,
Simply one small touch can be.
For our love, became real
As it bloomed from our first kiss.
