I knew

Contributor: John Ogden

- -
I knew
From the moment
I looked at you
Saw you
From across that crowded room.

I knew
I saw it in your eyes
In those blue, clear sky eyes.

I knew
Even before I touched you
Even before I kissed you
Even before I saw and heard
All of the things
That made me
Fall in love with you

I knew
That you would be
The one
For me
The one
I would drop before
On bended knee
The one I would ask
To marry me.

John Ogden was conceived of a government form and a passing mailbox. He lives somewhere out in the woods of a rural land more akin to the fantasy realms of literature than real life, and his favorite dirt bikes will always be the broken ones.
