Him

By: Christina Elaine Borden

When I first saw him, I knew I wanted to see him again.
His smile, his dark eyes, his laughter
Made the room seem to explode with happiness.

When I knew him, I knew I could love him.
His charm, his wit, the way he looked into my eyes when we spoke,
Made the whole vexatious world around me seem to deliquesce,
And with it, all of my troubles and worries.
I couldn't get enough of him.

Now that I think about him, I see myself inside him.
And everyday is like a new beginning,
Filled with the excitement of a child.
And for everything he is, was or ever will be,
I love him with all I can love with, all I know how to love with.
