our eyes met
across the sandy bonfire
long enough to see
why the other was there
but short enough
so that no one would know
but us
our hands met
next to each other
clasping onto each other
while or toes
sift through wet sand
and the waves
wash it all away
our lips met
at sunset
our eyes no paying attention
to the rainbow
of colors in the sky
and the golden orb of life
sinking slowly
into the depths
of salty sea
fireworks blaring
sparks kissing
the nighttime sky
but we didn't notice
our hearts met
as we talked to each other
throughout the night,
listening to the other's secrets,
still burying our feet in the sand
our two hearts
became one
years before "I do"
but seeing you
neat and polished
at the end of the aisle
gave me butterflies
and I'm a nervous wreck
staring into your eyes
and seeing our future together
sends waves of calm
down my dress
