My eyes noticed her, but my heart recognized her and still loves her even now…

My eyes noticed her, but my heart recognized her and still loves her even now…
To be honest, I didn't fall in love with her Because of what my eyes saw. It wasn't her smile, Her face, Or the way she looked at me That made me stay. It was the peace I felt When I was with her. The comfort in her presence. The way my heart felt was understood Without having to explain itself.
My eyes noticed her, And I went to speak to her But my heart recognized her And maybe that is why, Even when I can no longer see her, A part of me still loves her. It was never about the surface. It was about the quiet way She made me feel like home Before I even knew I was looking for one.
I left because I was afraid. But I stayed in love because my heart had already decided.
I wrote this because my eyes noticed her, but my heart recognized her. She felt like home before I knew I was looking for one. And even now, a part of me still loves her. I wrote it as a testament to the depth of my heart and the clarity of my self-awareness. It is a gift to anyone who has ever loved someone they could not keep and who found that a part of them still loves them anyway. #JibrinWrites #JustTheThoughtOfOneMan
