I did not know that it was love ...

At first, there was a heat in my head, in my hands, it spread throughout my body, making me awake, made me come to life.
And then my senses seemed to grow, expand, and all things were so sharp, so ultra clear; the colours brighter than I'd ever known them, the air was filled with resonance,
with sounds that touched me,
exotic flavours tempted me,
and everything was so alive.
And at the center of it all, in stillness, absolute perfection, there was you; a being like I've never felt before; an alien invasion in a forgotten land, oasis, home and travel to the stars, all there, all manifest in you.
I saw your times, I saw your lives, I saw your fire, saw your eyes, I had arrived and landed in the world at last;
I did not know that it was love.
