In a sudden rush,
I was brought back to that split second.
Of that one smile that captured my heart.
The sheer smile, the perfect timing.
All in that second.
That life changing kind of second.
The smile accompanies me,
Through the jungle,
Conquering the wilderness.
In bus rides; in walks alike,
In my dozing off; in my awakening.
That kind of faithful friend.
Seizing me like no tomorrow,
The deep gaze into my innermost.
The firm hold of a guardian.
I rest in your boldness, and in your kindness.
I feel safe.
Just my favorite kind of soul.
I sit here across from you,
Yet I yearn to get closer still.
Never unwilling, you came close right by me.
I can almost feel your skin.
The one I feel I've known all my life.
Maybe that's it,
I've known you all my life.
And it's all coming back to me!
