Subject: Love at first sight 

And I remember when I met him,

It was another cold day in December,

As my eyes landed on you,

For the first time, I wasn't myself, 

My guard was down, how alluring, 

It keeps pulling me in, those cognac eyes,

I want it to look at me.

From a single glance, 

Waiting to have a chance,

and watched every romance.

Maybe if i utter a few words you

wouldn’t think of me as an acquaintance?

My heart sang your 

Name, beating faster

and faster, day by day. 

Oh, dear, you are making

me fall in love with you,

So deeply.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

You and me,

On my mind, everywhere, 

Baby say you're mine.

Strange, I am no lover —

But for you, with a smile,

I would risk it all.
