Poem 37- Bang bang boom

Bang bang boom

The night we met she said you must be in to her
That they were always in to her
Then you looked at me
The game changed
It was real and kind
You were fun and sweet
You were wise and music ran in your veins
It made me know she was wrong

The night we met you said we had met before
That we had known each other for years
That everyone had been talking about me
How could you not know?
But you were new to me
Clever, sure of yourself
You had a fire
It taught me what a challenge this could be

The night we met she said I was the best one
That you had told her it was fact
And through your time
I became that
You were quiet and shy
You told me your jokes weren’t funny
Special and obvious
It made me pleased to be alive

The night we met you said I was mysterious
That I was so unknown it scared you
That through our progression
In to realms of passion we knew
It would be exceptional
You were beautiful and sure of what you knew
You were helpful and spontaneous
It made me believe in the power of codependence

The night we will meet you will say nice to meet you
I will be unsure if it rivals what I have known
It will shake my world and change the
Patterns of my breath
It will push me to do things I could never do
You will be fun, clever, shy and sure of yourself
You will be wise and special and beautiful
And it will be obvious and challenging and funny
It will make me know that love exists
