When the love first struck me,

it was unknown how influential it could be.

I had no idea what it would mean

to be seen.


I walked across the deck

unknown to the sight of where my eyes were put next,

all I saw was a personage.

In a toned black t-shirt, he stood there guiding,

I was astonished at what I saw...


Perfection, right there it was.


To feel it first,

I fell in love.


The very next stare was to determine

if I was still in my conscious.

Often, lads like myself tend to be lost

in dreams of the unknown.


Standing right there, I smiled to myself

taking the next step...

As slowly as I could pass,

I passed with no sound.

Months were left behind

by the time I was noticed,

I was showered with smiles and soft giggles.

I couldn't be happier.


I was finally being seen.


Seen for not the outside but what was hidden,

in the deep waves of the sea.

_____


Yet, time turned cruel.

Joy and laughter turned into

dreadful tears and wry.


I had no control,

had I the power to turn,

I would turn back time.


We had to move,

forward.


Taking a step, I still am walking with the bag.

Filled with those treasured memories.

Once which seemed lost, I carry with me


the joy of the moments, daily.
