When I Saw Him

The first time I saw him,

The air in the room changed.

When he smiled at me,

All time stopped.

When we first spoke,

I knew he would change my life.

When we bantered flirtatiously,

I knew he could break my heart.

When he kissed me,

My heart skipped a beat.

When caresses became more intimate,

Electricity charged through my body.

When I decided to visit him,

I spent days in breathless anticipation.

When he told me there was another,

Pain coursed through my soul.

We said goodbye, my heart forever damaged,

And that was the last time I saw him.
