She had never felt like this before -
A strange pull towards him,
An ache in heart, unexplainable -
Breathing shallow, giving out heat;
Her body on fire, desires heightened.
She had never felt love this strong,
Maybe lust it is, she thought -
As she fantasised about him,
Staring shamelessly at his chest muscles
As he worked hard in the fields.
The sweating body not repulsive at the least.
She discarded her feelings as lust, until -
He looked at her and their eyes met,
Staring deep into his brown eyes -
She felt the lust leave her body,
To give place to something else
Something that was beyond the physical.
She had never seen such beautiful brown eyes,
Eyes that held her gaze in a way -
As if he held her in his arms.
Eyes that gave a whole new definition to feelings
Eyes that made her hold her breath
And fall in love in an instant.
She had never she loved a man before
The way she loved him;
And each day as she looks at him,
Sleeping next to her in bed
She knows –
She would never love anyone
The way she loves him.
