My One and Only

When I first looked into your eyes
I knew you were the one.
When I first had touched your hand
I felt like walking on the sun.
In your eyes I saw the stars
That lit the nighttime sky
I new from then, I loved you so
And it made me want to cry
Tears of joy and happiness
Because I now have you.
You don't realize how much you've turned
My grayest skies to blue.
When I first had looked upon 
The beauty of your face
You spread joy and happiness
Into my desolate place.
Patience is a true virtue
And I have paid my dues
For when I held you in my arms
I felt, your love, I'd never lose.
I swear I saw heaven in your heart
And I don't want this feeling to end.
I want to feel your warm embrace
To feel the love you send.
My feelings for you mean so much more
Than words alone can say
And I want to hold you close to me
Every minute of every day.
This bond we share can grow into 
More than us being lovers
Because for me, there's only you
I can't look upon another.
I promise you my undying love
'cause we were meant to be
together forever in each others arms
in silent eternity.
I want so much to see you everyday
And every night I want you near
To hear the things I have to say
Whispered softly in your ear
To run my hands through your silky hair
And gaze deeply in your eyes
In the time that I want to run so slow
Goes much too quickly by.
We're almost into paradise
And I'm glad that I'm not lonely
For your name keeps running through my mind
Nicole. . . my one and only.
