I Never Knew... Poem by Nestor David Armas

I Never Knew...



I never knew dawn could break,

With peace so deep and hope so wide,

Until that first morning when I awoke,

And you lay sleeping by my side.*

I never knew I could laugh,

Without a care in the world; with such ease,

Until that first moment you infected me,

Contagious with your mirth; how you do tease.

I never knew I could feel so alive,

So aware of the world around me,

Until that first kiss we shared,

Electrifying feelings I could see.

I never knew what God had in store,

The plans he wrought long ago,

Until that first night,

I met you on the dance floor.

I never knew how much I could love,

With a fervor unknown to me,

Until that first thought,

I realized you fit me like a glove.

I never knew that I would ever discover,

What I searched for desperately,

Until that first instant,

You my lover...
