I cannot tell you about the day I fell in love with you

I don't have any recollection of what I may have been wearing,
Where we may have been,
Or what was happening in the world around us

While my soul was being branded to yours


I can't tell you if it was the bitter cold days of January
Or if there were daffodils peaking through a late snowfall in May
Or maybe it was when the bumble bees danced freely in the air

I cannot tell you when it was I started to care



I can't tell you precisely when, because the subconcious part of my psyche simply didn't notice when my favorite shade of lavendar became no match for the blue of your eyes

Or the taste of your lips after you'd been smiling at me for mere seconds;
Seconds that felt like an eternity

They were sweet
As if picked right from the branches of a peach tree
Soft and delicious
Whispering delicate secrets against mine




I can't tell you when you began inhabiting my most uninterrupted thoughts

Or when you became my most uninterrupted thoughts




I cannot tell you when, but there are so many reasons why
