my heart smiled as the gentleman spoke.
When our eyes met,
my soul was instantly awaken as if
I had been living a nightmare all my life.
He grabbed my hand
and the world around me
stopped.
I took a second to appreciate his soft skin,
and it seemed like no one could interrupt
this beautiful moment.
Until a superior voice spoke,
I had confidence in the love
flowing in the air
between my sweetheart and I.
I suddenly felt anger throughout my body
seeing that this person wanted to separate us.
I felt like my flawless world had been shifted upside down,
and though I really cared about my father
ignorance took over and love reigned.
Together, as lovers, we escaped
in this world of wonders,
where no one’s outlook on our relationship
could break the strength of our bonds
that united our compassion for each other
since the first sight, first word, and first kiss.
Love the phrase "world of wonders" and the return to the first line at the end.
