I recognised you in an instant

 
I recognised you in an instant,
as if my soul had been waiting for you forever.
Your words were music, and your laughter,
the refuge where I learned to dream.
You are the light that awakens the dawn,
the gentle breeze that caresses the sea,
my reason, my calm,
the eternal whisper of unparalleled love.
You are the scent of flowers in spring,
the sweet promise of a longing.
I recognised you in an instant,
as if you had always, always been there.
You are the verse that gives life to my song,
the dream come true, sacred love.
