That Look In Your Eyes... Poem by Rae Seagull

I waited so very long
Yet never forgot that look in your eyes
It haunted me through the decades
I had no hopes
Of ever seeing your eyes again
Until one blessed day
When I did
Looking up and finding you
Searching for me in a crowd
Our eyes locked
My heart jumped
And missed a few beats...

The moment I'd longed for
And waited for so long
So long that it seemed like an eternity
And was indeed more than half my lifetime
Was surreal
Almost unbelievable
It turned out to be
One of the happiest times
Of my entire life
I'd like to think
That we will have many more
Such moments
And they will continue to bring pure joy
To you and me...
