The First Time Poem by Martin Holm Sjölin

I can remember it clear as if it was yesterday
The first time i saw you
My heart must have been beating so loud,
That i thought you would actually hear it.

And then i found out, that you had.
That my feelings towards you must have been,
Love at first sight.

But then again. Love at first sight is nothing
It really doesn’t mean anything.
It's just a strange emotion that tells me that i like the way you look.
But it doesn’t mean i love you. Right?

But then i talked to you and i found that.
Maybe we're kind of alike.
Maybe it's a chance for me, or just maybe.
Maybe i've found what i was looking for in my life.

I meet you for the first time. And i feel in love.
Were my expectations to high?
Or was it just that we weren't ready for it?
I don't really know.

But i know that i love you.
I always have.
I always will.
And nothing can change that.
