Bill Mitton - AND THEN YOU KNOW

In an instant I saw it clearly.
This smiling girl
was
no longer a casual date,
but the person who
filled
all the corners of my life.
In her eyes I saw the
future.
In the passing of a
heartbeat
my life was made
anew.
In one breath
Time stood still
and
we
became a lifetime.
