What is it about you that makes my heart dance,

That makes my eyes glow,

That makes my life flow?

Why do you affect me?

Is it your absorbing eyes,

Or maybe it’s your form and size?

But maybe it is something more.

Maybe my eyes can see deeper,

See the person inside,

A person with whom to confide.

Maybe I can see beyond,

Beyond this pretty form,

To see the soul whom with me is compatible.

Someday perhaps we’ll meet,

If it be in ‘God”s perfect will,

And he’ll see beyond me as well,

But only time will tell.

I think that if we met, he would like me as well,

And realize how similar we are,

Even though we’ve been so long afar.
