Love is that moment
When your soul awakens
When your heart is no longer
Single, but completely taken
Love is the tingles
Of a first Kiss
And when your apart
It is each other you miss
Love is that moment
That takes your breath away
When you anticipate and say
"Yes!" to a future wedding day
Love is that moment
When you look into their eyes
And you see only the truth
Seeing no hidden lies
Love is the moment
That you when you tell your mate
That your menstruation
Is just a little too late
Love is those moments
As together you grow
As a family and you count the blessings,
That upon you have been bestowed
Love is the moment
That you hold your infant
Would you do it all over again?
You bet! In an instant!
Love is those moments
You sit and relive
Through the memories
All the past sins you forgive
Love is that beautiful moment
That I met you
And love is the eternity
That I'll spend with you
Love is the moment
That you say goodbye
Feeling those kisses
One to each eye

I love the background you chose. It is perfect with the poem. The poem had a 'carefree' kind of love *heart* feel to it? I did enjoy the read makes you smile as you think of that person you feel exactly like that.
My only question for you is why didn't the 2nd stanza begin as all the others... also, you rhymed the same word together in 2nd to last stanza. [you and you] but that might be all you had to work with at the time of writing it.
I do try to reach into the heart and soul of a poem. You can feel the passion in this. Nice job...
Thanks for entering ~ best of luck to you! -

Ironically, i didn't even think about that, I was just writing from the heart.
I plan on tweeking it more later 
but I really liked it as is. But I see your points, thank you for the positive and critical review
