The Day I Fell In Love Poem by Pablo Loves Life

On that day, when I saw you
everything changed
suddenly you were real
a thought for the first time ever
although I knew you before
and there were many hellos and goodbyes
… but on that day I really saw you
and everything changed for me
although at first I did not know
did not realize that this love
would grip my mind
and possess me for time to come

On the day I saw you
you hardly looked at me
or gave me a second thought
you laughed at my messages
thinking me foolish
yet, you wrote me a poem
tying me down with your words
and the words with ribbons
as I would later ties you down

On the day I saw you
you never thought you would agree
to see me… not even for a moment
in the darkens of night did you
think you would feel like a woman
again but you did..
and I never even offered you coffee or wine
no “how was your day”…
just passion going its way
our loving so natural as if it should
be this way and it surprised you
that you would lie in my arms
while I caressed you

On the day I saw you
you never thought there would be
dates or flowers or gifts big and small
you never thought that you would
find love come your way
On the day I saw you, neither of us
knew that love could be this way
and that we would share yet another
anniversary today
