Falling For You Poem by Zac Plague

On a summer's day long, long ago
I fell in love and I'll never know
Just what it was that made me feel
So drawn to her, what the appeal
That set my pulses so to race
Whenever I gazed upon that face
Of one who was scarce but a child
Yet even then could drive me wild.
I'll never know the how's and why's
I lost myself to shining eyes
But when I got that long sought kiss
I knew I'd found my Perfect Miss
My elfin girl from down the lane
And I'll never let her go again.

For how could I describe our love?
Romantic love, all hearts and flowers
Now way to count the days and hours
Spent in self-indulgent wishes
And thoughts of long awaited kisses
Of sweet embraces, tender sighs
And gazing into love-filled eyes.
Oh yes, it is that kind of love.

Or is it yet the love of passion
The ecstasy that knows no ration
That shuddering nerve; tingling feeling
Blood rushing with your senses reeling
The wonderous joy when you discover
That sweet surrender to your lover.
Oh yes, it is that kind of love.

Or even yet a love that grows
One that cares and one that knows
That sees beyond the outer skin
Into the person deep within
That loves the spirit and the soul
The inner self that makes the whole.
Built on trust and empathy
A love you know was meant to be.

The love we share is all these things
A love that has no need of rings
A love you never need to doubt
A love I cannot live without
A love to last us all our days
A love I'll share with you always.
