The Hidden Mysteries of Love

The Hidden mysteries of love
   is written across my face.
Every time you come into the room.
 
The atmosphere changes when I look at you.
My heart beats faster and a melody plays out
   in my head.
A melody that expresses the warmth you bring
   and butterflies arise inside of me.  
All this when I see you.

When you walk in the room, I see a spotlight.
   shining from above.
Pride swells up in me, just knowing I found someone
   special, you.

What my eyes see, I can't express with words.
Sweat forms upon my brow, as you take my breath away.

And then a smile explodes across my face.
I feel like a school boy with his first crush.
Except this isn't a crush, this is real.
This isn't something just physical, or a fly by night
   encounter.
This is real, this is deeper, this is us.
The hidden mystery of love,
   is two people forever.
