It was the way he acted around me when we first met,
Like a friend I’ve known for a long time;
The way he talked to me when we were alone –
A husband whispering into an ear of his wife.
It was the way he made me feel when he gave me a hug –
A surge of happiness…floating in clouds;
It was the way I felt when he looked at me.
Stomach turning…afraid of screwing up.
The way my heart leaped whenever I saw him.
The way I felt sick when he was away,
The way chills went down my spine whenever he held my hand.
It was the way my heart skipped a beat with our first kiss,
How I felt when I realized that he truly cared.
Asking about problems and helping solve them.
It was the way I cried with tears of joy when he asked me to be his bride.
The way he always seemed to be around when I needed him most.
Needing a shoulder to cry on and his being the first one there.
It was the way but not the way anymore.
