Tethered To The Moment

I recall the moment I first saw you; my heart practically jumped from my chest. For, at that magical moment, I knew that you were different from all the rest; and I smiled, triggering you to smile too. Time stopped, locking that moment forever in the memory of my heart and soul. There's no doubt in my mind whatsoever, that I was broken, and you made me whole; a bond that even death cannot sever. Love can be traced to that moment in time; the epitome of a happy thought. You gave me your heart, and I gave you mine, and doubt was replaced by the hope love brought; for even belated hope tastes sublime. Tethered to that moment; reality and fantasy intertwine in my mind. I liken our first chance meeting to be like gaining my sight after being blind; then slowly realizing I can see.
