Love At First Sight Poem by Jessica Robert

Love At First Sight

Rating: 5.0


There you stand
Across from me,
I stare, unable to look away from your beauty
You are the thing that holds me here now
Strings tying me down
My heart, glowing like the sun
Is still beating with your smile
Your scent keeps me breathing
Oxygen, no longer necessary to fill my lungs
My heart aches to go to you
And I follow it's demands
There is no way I can fight it
You are what keeps me alive, a necessity
I feel so light on my feet
As I walk over to you
I can see nothing any more
It's all behind me now
I have found my other half, I can feel that
Truth is no longer oblivious to my weak eyes
You face, purely beautiful
Stuns me with each spark in your eyes
I feel life running through my veins
An ember illuminating my face
I greet you, and I see it in your eyes
That you too,
Have felt the strong feeling
Of love at first sight.

Premature love or love at first sight is a beautiful endeavor, however, once reality strikes those same uncontrollable feelings become erratic and sometimes deadly for the affected hearts.

Not many can experience this feeling friend... And you'v expressed it well indeed... i mean, it is sort of hard to express what love at first sight really means, cause say to some other friend of yours, 'i fell in love with his the moment i saw him'.. he ll think u r mad... but i d say.. not many are lucky to feel such a romantic feeling, and u v expressed it well indeed.. good write.. with lovesss shan

Love at first sight. Sigh! As I get older, I have started believing in it.
