To have been told "I love you" by you could well be, for me,34Please respect copyright.PENANAxfQvCUP0Ux
the highlight of my life, the best feeling, the best peak34Please respect copyright.PENANAhplV6WUWVS
on my feeling graph, in the way that the Chrysler building34Please respect copyright.PENANA5y4vFRxrg9
might not be the tallest building in the NY sky but is34Please respect copyright.PENANAI9iODmzMFz
the best, the most exquisitely spired, or the way that34Please respect copyright.PENANAyU9MuUgo6c
Hank Aaron's career home-run total is not the highest34Please respect copyright.PENANAP3fMYdhJp5
but the best, the one that signifies the purest greatness.34Please respect copyright.PENANA3b3xckCrL3
So improbable! To have met you at all and then34Please respect copyright.PENANA7zzgmriFwq
to have been told in your soft young voice so soon34Please respect copyright.PENANAXiJT80PtRG
after meeting you: "I love you." And I felt the mystery34Please respect copyright.PENANA5eNTaHCPnG
of being that you, of being a you and being34Please respect copyright.PENANALD758ox6mi
loved, and what I was, instantly, was someone34Please respect copyright.PENANAtAcyXhlDyV
who could be told "I love you" by someone like you.34Please respect copyright.PENANA0hmaOY8wCY
I was, in that moment, new; you were 19; I was 22;34Please respect copyright.PENANAQqEuDydVyL
you were impulsive; I was there in front of you, with a future34Please respect copyright.PENANAdP49AlhlJN
that hadn't yet been burned for fuel; I had energy;34Please respect copyright.PENANA8ln1aBTpWy
you had beauty; and your eyes were a pale blue,34Please respect copyright.PENANABL6yoUQs0V
and they backed what you said with all they hadn't seen,34Please respect copyright.PENANA9N11VtKTFP
and they were the least ambitious eyes I'd known,34Please respect copyright.PENANAYjckrNnSfR
the least calculating, and when you spoke and when34Please respect copyright.PENANAUOz3z6tmVg
they shone, perhaps you saw the feeling you caused.34Please respect copyright.PENANAEnKrfaUPeo
Perhaps you saw too that the feeling would stay.
