When We Met

by Walter   Sep 19, 2018


We fell in love
At first sight
The way you smile
Is pure delight

Across the room
Our eyes connect
My first thought
Is you're perfect

I can't believe
How you stun
In a crowded room
The only one

At far ends
We still attract
Since our eyes met
And both react

The path to you
Already made
Drawn together
No time delayed

We start to talk
Straight away
Like we both waited
For this day

And when I hear
The way you speak
Your voice alluring
It makes me weak

You offer your hand
Our fingers touch
Electricity
Never felt so much

I know this is
Just the start
I can already feel
You in my heart

Although the saying
Might be cliché
I have been in love
Ever since that day

    This is great Walter, love how compact it is, which helps with the flow.
    However...
    You could compact it slightly more, just to remove those little stumbling words that alter the flow.

    Stanza 2
    final line, could read 'You're perfect'
    Stanza 3
    Line one, could read simply 'cannot believe'
    Stanza 6
    Line 3 , discard the word 'both' you have already suggested the poem involves you both.

    Just a couple of suggestions, do with them what you may, it's your poem after all.

    thanks for sharing

    This made me smile as soon as I started reading it. Love the rhyming and the romantic imagery. That first moment when you see someone who you know you are going to fall in love with is priceless. Loved this piece. Milly x
