LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

When I saw you for the first time, my heart skipped a beat and I knew that this was it for me and that I would never be able to find love like this with anyone else again in my life.

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

Sarah was a beautiful young girl, but she was also fragile and delicate. There were so many different expressions in her big greenish eyes that many boys, some of whom were in their early twenties, were drawn to her and offered her friendship. Not once, twice, or fifteen times did she deny any kind of relationship between her older teen friends and her. The butterflies that she felt when she first saw him never returned.

Suddenly, when their eyes met, she became so weak that she could barely speak, walk, or survive on her own. Every time she felt one of those butterflies, she thought of him.

Sarah was a fearless young woman who was not afraid to speak her mind. Throughout the entire building, she was loud and ecstatic. It was clear that she couldn't explain herself to anyone else using words or behaviour; she couldn't even prove and explain the smallest detail of what she said.Before one day, or more precisely, until this happened in the wee hours of the morning...

She was awakened from a dream. They were going to kill her. Despite the darkness, she was scurrying down the stairs. She was being followed by a few steps that were getting closer and closer to her. In that dream, she was frightened, and then she woke up. When the door flung open, a blinding flash blinded her. She was directly in front of someone, but she couldn't make out their face or any details about their presence. The footsteps behind her ceased and then vanished. Opened her eyes, Sarah looked at the time. It was four o'clock in the morning.

In her sleep, she thought it was a "very strange dream."

The first thing her hands did was to take out a pen and a small note book, and she began writing.In the morning, she found her note-book and pen still in her hands when she awoke. Except for that dream, she had no recollection of anything else.

There was a four-page poem filled with conflicting emotions and optimistic predictions for the future. She kept her song to herself because it was so well-written. Her dreams became more and more apparent after a while of trying to understand how she wrote a poem and how she had never used her words that way before. Those restless nights turned out to be some of her happiest memories. Although she was happy with the outcome, she couldn't shake the gnawing sensation of unresolved emotions gnawing at her inside.

He called her first, then came over to her house with a huge red rose bouquet. Her heart sank to the point of numbness. Her heart was numb as she inhaled the scent of Vlad, who smelt like a flower. Her adoration for him intensified at a dizzying rate. Whenever she could, she wanted to spend time with him, smelling him and simply admiring him. At first contact, she felt like a million butterflies were fluttering all over and inside her. Vlad, who was experiencing the same butterflies as Sarah, didn't make her wait long for their first kiss. He leaned in close and kissed her on the lips with his free hand. Moments like that are rare. They were the only ones in the room. It was like a moonlight waltz. That night, it felt like a star from the heavens had been writing their future! In the blink of an eye, her entire solar system came to life, and she could hear the music playing in her head.

She told him the words she had never spoken to anyone else before that day! If anything happens to me or you in the future, my love for you won't die."
