PRELUDE

The minute I saw you. when your eyes hit me
I froze solid with my mind cast out-
somewhere beyond all reason, you came close,
I breathed you in and nearly passed out.

In that split second, I fell for you,
not in love or lust, just a weird sort of daze-
where everything felt good, no matter what,
like being high on XTACY, you have been my craze.

I don't know what brought you but you came
and my blood raced as my heart pounded-
and you touched me, like you were a lightning bolt,
perfectly aware that I wasn't grounded.

And you will never cease to amaze me,
always leaving me breathless, without a clue-
still
I get tickled from out of the blue
because they say lightning never strikes twice...
