My Moment of You

You remember it all

Where we stood

What we did

How it happened

You even remember the number of times the pieces of ivory made contact

I remember the taste of the river

The feel of the water

The texture of the riverbed

I remember that look from those shiny pebbles

And the feeling that came when you reached inside and touched my soul

The lightning was too much

But I remember that smile that crept across my face

And the way I beamed for the rest of the week

I remember jumping up and down in an attempt to contain my joy

The world exploded and that was my first sign

I was in love
