SHE LOVED

She has really lived, because she's loved
It's a great adage as old as time
But Love help she knew, when she met you
That you were not just a man.

Your eyes looked straight ahead,
At a goal at the end of someday
Your feet were set on a path
And nothing would stand in your way

Your lips were set and determined
To her you seemed ten feet tall
And she knew with that first fleeting glance you gave her
That nothing else would ever matter at all

She was amazed when you whispered her name
She held her breath
As still as death
And she trembled when you took her hand

She was hypnotic by the look in your eyes
Drugged by the sound of your voice
When you smiled at her she knew she would be
Forever and ever yours
