Just a second that is all it took
Just one moment - just one look
Just a glimpse a split second of bliss
Just a thought of her succulent kiss
I met my Angel in the blink of an eye
I never spoke a word as she passed me by
A vision in white with her dark red hair
A man by her side, how I wish I was there
Our eyes had met I swear that was true
about this Angel I would not lie to you
My life in a second I would never trade
In that single moment my future was made
Every year I remember our time in the sun
Every year I remember that I had met the one
Every year I remember that on this day
She had stolen my heart as she walked the other way.
Author notes
This is for Jax...I remember feeling this, seeing you for the first time and knowing that we could not be together....How lucky I am that that changed and now my true love is mine forever...

I thought you had met your true love but, even though you didn't, you'll always have the memory. Nice romantic piece.

Criss......you got me again...the one versus the a is a no brainer and it looks so much better tnx........

second line.. I think that it would be more dramatic if you used "just ONE moment and just ONE look"
Hook, Line and Sinker. =) This is brilliant. I love the last two lines. A lot of people reserve love for their spouse, their mom, dad, children.. but what about the forgotten love of two strangers, passing in time?
Great storyline here. Kind of like, "You had me from hello" =)
