Moment's Gaze

In just one glance a flame was lit,
A silent fire sparked within,
Through crowded din our eyes admit,
Without a word, where love begins.


 

In that brief pause the world felt still,
Vibrant hues bloomed in your sight,
Time itself seemed to bend at will,
And everything else took its flight.


 

Our souls conversed, no words exchanged,
A language born of serendipity,
In that swift look our lives rearranged,
Drawn together by unseen gravity.


 

Love's swift arrow, a fabled shot,
In the realm of sight, a legend wrought,
What fates align in such a plot?
In that first gaze, what have we sought?


 

Two hearts now dared to skip and twirl,
Upon that look, a love unfurled,
In the universe's grand unfurl,
At first sight, our journey swirled.


 

Eclipsed by You

The moment's moon on your face did rest,
Eclipsing all that I could view,
In stunning silence my heart confessed,
Beat thrumming rhythms, love anew.


 

A cosmic dance in your presence found,
Orbiting thoughts around your grace,
Upon first sight, to you I’m bound,
In stellar awe, time did erase.


 

No sage or seer could thus predict,
The sudden rapture of the skies,
When in your gaze I stood transfixed,
A universe in your eyes.


 

Yet in that slice of eternity,
Our souls aligned, a fated thread,
Love's gravity, so pure, so free,
Upon the stars our path was led.


 

Eclipsed by you, my night turned day,
Celestial bodies found their way,
In that stark light of first display,
Love chose us on its timeless sway.


 

Stranger's Enchantment

A stranger's glance upon a train,
A quiet spark, a whispered might,
Neither seeking, nor in vain,
A love conceived in transit's flight.


 

Did the universe conspire,
To seat you by my wandering soul?
In kindled look, a smoldering fire,
Two halves of broken becoming whole.


 

That fleeting crush, an arrow’s aim,
Through misted window, hearts proclaim,
A world outside fades into blight,
Love’s dawn in you, my newfound light.


 

Perhaps nevermore will our paths cross,
Yet memories bloom like morning's frost,
Upon that glance the cost emboss,
No words, no touch, but never lost.


 

For though you stepped off, and away,
Inside my mind you'll ever stay,
From sight's first tender, secret play,
Love wove its thread in subtle array.


 

Unspoken Symphony

First sight unfolds an unspoken symphony,
Crescendos of heartbeats in harmony,
Eyes meet, the world falls hush,
In an orchestra of silent rush.


 

Magnetic pull without a touch,
Volumes spoken in the silence such,
A gaze that held the sweetest tune,
Underneath the crescent moon.


 

Every look contains a sonnet,
With tender verses upon it,
Scribed within an instant's span,
Where love’s unfathomed depths began.


 

No need for lyrics to convey,
The depth of feeling on display,
As two souls learn to dance and sway,
To music made in eyes' ballet.


 

Love birthed from sight, a matchless plea,
The purest form of melody,
In just one glance, forever symphony,
Two hearts enraptured, eternally free.


 

Canvas of Awe

A portrait painted with a look,
Upon the canvas of our awe,
In that still frame, my whole world shook,
By brushstrokes of fate, without a flaw.


 

Each iris a masterpiece of chance,
Colors swimming with each lance,
A gallery where our glances meet,
Magnificence in hearts' retreat.


 

A masterpiece hung in time and space,
Each detail of your face I trace,
Ephemeral art, no need for chase,
Love captured in our shared embrace.


 

For what artist could so depict,
The lightning love of sight so quick?
That captures souls and spirits tight,
In the silent gallery of the night.


 

No brush required, no palette's need,
Upon one look, love's seed was freed,
In eyes contact, our spirits read,
A painter's dream in love's first heed.


 

Through the Crowd

Through the crowd you came in view,
An effigy of something true,
A single moment split the tides,
Set my heart adrift on new-found rides.


 

The noise, the lights, they all gave way,
To the silent play of glance relay,
A ricochet of unseen spark,
Lighting up the unexpected dark.


 

Love's electricity in the air,
Breathing life without a care,
A path revealed, no longer blind,
Through the throngs our fates entwined.


 

In strangers’ seas, a beacon bright,
Guided by the northern light,
First sight, the sailor’s lore,
Two souls anchored, forevermore.


 

In that single, sweeping sight,
Two worlds collided into the night,
Through the crowd, a path to you,
And in that instant, love was true.


 

Glimpses to Forever

Just a glimpse before the throng,
Yet my heart has known all along,
That in your eyes there lies a dawn,
A beginning where my love is drawn.


 

That split-sec's brush with chance,
Sets forth a lifetime's dance,
Upon the stage of happenstance,
Love ignited at first glance.


 

A spark, a start, a subtle fire,
No grand gestures, no loud choir,
Just a simple, pure desire,
In your look, my dreams aspire.


 

Romance written in the stars,
Scrawled across the sky in ours,
A universe with no disbars,
From sight to eternity, no pars.


 

Time may march forth in its way,
Yet our first sight reels back the day,
The love that lingers come what may,
In that glimpse, forever lay.


 

Whispers of Fate

To see your face, just that one time,
Felt like the bells of heavens chime,
A note of destiny, whispering low,
A prelude to love's nascent flow.


 

In just one gaze, a novel penned,
A story of hearts that fate would mend,
The prologue written in silent speech,
A future written within our reach.


 

We stood upon life's crowded stage,
Yet felt alone within that page,
The world receded, love took wage,
Transcribed by sight, a lover's sage.


 

This whispered fate, through eyes conveyed,
In glances shared, our bond was made,
With none but stars as our brigade,
Upon love’s altar, hopes were laid.


 

Your visage in my memory sealed,
First sight's enchantment never healed,
A whispering fate that time revealed,
In that silent gaze, love's fate was sealed.


 

Once Upon a Glance

Once upon a busy street,
A stranger's eyes my own did greet,
A novel born without a script,
In just one look, my world was flipped.


 

Not a word had passed between,
Yet a novel scene had been,
Where hearts converse, no need to speak,
Love's first chapter, unique, oblique.


 

An interlude in life's grand waltz,
A sudden spin, an arcane pulse,
In rushed routines, we found a halt,
Connecting not by word, but jolt.


 

No courtship drawn in lengthy verse,
Love’s plot was set, diverse, perverse,
In stranger’s scripts, our parts immerse,
First sight, the chorus in reverse.


 

Such fables told in just one glance,
Adventure wove, left not to chance,
Beneath those skies, life's grand expanse,
A single look, our timeless dance.


 

Uncharted Territories

An uncharted territory caught within your eyes,
In that fleeting moment love did not disguise,
A siren song that beckoned, sweet surprise,
A realm of untold stories beneath the open skies.


 

In the ballad of the crowd, a silence found,
When two gazes locked, much more was bound,
A chance encounter where affections crowned,
In sight, the heart's vocation came unwound.


 

Love's first scene, no prelude, just applause,
Breaking laws of solitude without a cause,
In your eyes, a quiet revolution thaws,
A love laid bare, defying gravity’s laws.


 

Through the canvas of our lives, colors swirled,
At first sight, into new existence, we were hurled,
A tapestry entwining as the world twirled,
Uncharted hearts discovered, together curled.


 

And in that gaze, the compass lost its north,
New trajectories of the heart sallied forth,
No mapped-out journeys, love's sight set forth,
Two souls in uncharted territories, love's worth.
