When We Meet

That moment…where school uniform was all over as
the Timekeeper rang it, then noise began, with excitement 
While educators had to rest so were we, we ran… 

And there you were…brighter than your shadow
As I approached, lighter than your overflow
The tallness, the rare fit captive body, that figure 
Gave you your uniqueness…perfectness, rare lips to lipstick
Done with vigilance with no leak so was your hip

Couldn’t hesitate it, that was extraordinary 
As we glanced…I felt my rescue to my Psychological prison 
Had no alternate but to grab your heart that sparkled from a distance 
You lit my Heart while those flawless red lips caught my sight

Your beauty hit my shock and I was ready to converse 
Your name was a music to my heart that kept my heart dancing your tune 
It took off my fear 
You gave me your numbers and couldn’t wait 
And so I gave you a call and you felt the same 

Now I’m proud of you and for that reason I choose you
Then let it forever be so…me and you
