Planted love

a love for you grew within me - a poem

the first time you caught my eye it was not love at first sight.
instead, a quiet curiosity was planted in my chest,
and I knew it was only a matter of time before you sunk beneath my bones.
and nurtured this deep-seated familiarity
into a love so fierce
that I would question if I had ever really been in love before. - HERvoice
