One Night With You (poem)

They say love walks in when you least expect it
Its not something you go looking for
Love is not something you can force
I was not looking for you
You walked into my life
At a time I was not in the right frame of mind
For reasons it would take me a while to explain

From the moment you sat down at my side
To the night you stood in front of me
From the moment you said goodbye
To that night we locked eyes
Everything in my life began to change
I've never felt anything like that in my life
Honestly I can't recall ever feeling that alive



I have waited for nearly half of my life
For someone like you to come along
I've done shed my share of blood & tears
Life dealt me a bad hand from the start
I don't remember when I lost my heart

Maybe you had it all along
I just didn't realize it until after you were gone
I don't know if we are meant to be
Yet, I definitely would move heaven & earth
To be granted one night with you
