A freight train

When I first met you
I was adrift, aloof, amiss

You came as though sent
Your face, your voice, and those eyes
All made me calm
Feeling the depth behind them
The strength
The person

Time has passed
But a sliver
And yet a lifetime it may have been
As my feelings, from the first moment
Have been true
Real
And unavoidable

Like a freight train
With urgent deliveries
A shooting star
Dead set on course
A stallion, determined to gallop to the horizon

So is the emotion in my whole being for you
I am no longer in charge
It has me
You have me

 I am yours
Do with me as you will

But know that in all my dealings with you
All my thoughs
And all my dreams and desires I will always treat you with respect, admiration and affection

Where our course is headed
Is unknown
Where we will end up, I'm unsure

All I know is that this journey is an amazing one and that I'm falling
Fast
Hard
and Persistently for you
