That night in the car,
on our first date,
I knew the life I’d have with you.
I could not see it, think or spell it,
But know, that I felt it.
The road unwound beneath us, a ribbon through the dark,
And time itself seemed to pause, aligning with our spark.
The city lights, a distant blur,
our world, right here, confined,
To the dreams we’d yet to find.
We spoke of trivial things at first,
But even then, I felt the pull,
For in your voice, there was a tune,
that called to my own spirit.
The future was a mystery unclaimed,
But on that night, within your smile,
my heart was truly named.
We’ve traveled far from that first night,
through trials, tears, and laughter,
Yet, that moment in the car,
foretells the ever after.
For though I could not see it,
think it, or predict it,
That night, beneath the stars,
our lives were interdicted.
Here’s to all the unseen roads, whatever we come through,
And to the night it all began when I found home in you.
