I remember the first time we met
It was Christmas
I was around your neighborhood and I thought hey why not?
So I called, you picked and said, you were home.
It was right where you described it. 
I saw you, your pictures sure didn’t do you justice enough cause you looked twice as pretty in person. 
You beckoned to me to come inside, I was nervous but your smile, it calmed me.
Your folks were the best, I felt right at home.
Best Cake I ever tasted.
As I regaled your family with my tales.
I saw you, beautiful and super shy.
Your eyes averted mine when they met, you kept tucking your hair behind your ears.
It was as if we met before or the universe wanted us to meet. 
We didn’t talk much but our eyes  had a conversation.
We connected.
I think the universe was jealous, it said, ‘Oya e don do, come dey go house” cause I don’t understand how time suddenly became fast and furious.
It was time to leave and you offered to walk me.
So much to say but over a short distance. We held hands.
I saw your scar, the one you were trying to hide. It only complimented you. Interesting story.
We talked, we walked. Each of us waiting for the other to make a move for the goodbye hug.
I finally did, we got a big laugh out of it.
And I went home with the biggest smile on my face.❤💯
