When did I love you first, that's hard to say because there were so many things about you that started a new feeling in my heart. Seeing you sitting on your summer steps from across the way, I saw a girl that I wished would look my way. I didn't want to stare but I still stole a glimpse of your sculpture on that cement stair. A spark was quickly set even though I really had no way to know if a spark will create fire or just create a warm glow. I guess all it would have taken was a hello and I would have been ready to let you know that you had a special glow, but Little did I know that one day an innocent hello was not far away. As you approached me one day after school my anxiety began to grow. I had almost finished waxing my fiery red car and you continued coming my way. All I could do is stare. You became a humble salesman and asked me if I wanted to buy a ticket for a Good Council Sock hop dance. Even though I pretended there was no pressure at all I figured that this was my moment to see if I had a chance with you at all. I blurted out in somewhat nervous voice, "I'll buy 2 tickets if you were my sock hop date." I asked but I was not sure of the reply. If you said no I still was ready to buy but it surely wouldn't be the same, I would only feel I was donating money and have no date. To my surprise the answer was yes, and it began a special love that lasts to today's date.
