Each Day
I have never seen this before.
She moved like she was dancing.
Time felt like it had stood still.
I was at such a loss for words.
She was headed for the door.
Oh how my mind was racing.
I had to gather up my will.
Before it became too late.
I started across the floor.
This feeling was so amazing.
It had come from any drink or a pill.
I was about to enter her world.
Was it my quiet hello?
That caused her to smile.
Was it the self conscious look in my eyes?
I get it every once in awhile.
She didn’t move.
We started conversing.
Everyone else seemed to disappear.
I never experienced anything like this before.
My how time flies.
When you get this feeling.
That there is something here that feels right.
When you just don’t want it to end.
The night drifted away.
In quiet talk we greeted the morning.
In that small coffee shop.
We passed the time like long lost friends.
With phone numbers exchanged.
We knew it was coming.
We had to go our separate ways.
Yet with the talk of seeing each other again.
Then she was on her way.
Still moving like she was dancing.
A look back gave me the smile on her face.
No more insecurity in my eyes.
Years have gone by.
Since I started across that floor.
I remember that long walk I had alone.
Now you’re with me by my side.
I’ll always remember that night.
In a small coffee shop.
Where everything since then has gone right.
I owe it all to you.
So here are a few words.
I wrote for you as you wake this morning.
I can’t wait to see you after I’m done work.
Each new day a love renewed.
