I've only seen it twice
Both times took my breath away
It still amazes me even today
The magic it holds
The first time I was awestruck
Glittering gold with emerald sparks
A royal treasure that I cherished.
Behind it, a flame had ignited
Sending ripples down my spine
It was like a rush of adrenaline
Or a hit of ecstasy
My heart was pounding
It gave me power, strength
I truly felt alive that day
I had never wanted it to end
It filled me with warmth
In the cold winter months
And when it left, the hit wore off
My heart froze, and I was numb
The day it thawed was the second time
No longer gold but Hershey's brown
A sweet treasure
A young heart's biggest treat
For it was still very naïve
Glacier hearts melted under the gaze
The flame was intense
It beat alive with new purpose
The hit was back, stronger than ever
It's frightening the power it held
It's amazing what a look can do
It can make you or break you
They say a picture is worth 1000 words
The look is worth a billion more
