Suddenly

Cloud Nine can't compare
To this feeling that you give me.

A rush blazing from within---everywhere.

The pleasantries, an all-consuming fire;
I can hardly breathe,
Yet, I relish every second of it.

What more do you have under your sleeve?
Just how will you captivate me next?

Your smile shakes me to my very core,
Your eyes feed me, as I beg for more.

The words you say, like a gentle breeze,
The way you get me, time seems to freeze.

You're a walking wonder,
A passage to paradise;
A sweet oasis,
You're out of sight.

O', and how suddenly you found me,
I'd let you find me again and again.
