He touched me.
He put his hand near mine and then he touched me.

I felt a sudden tingle when he touched me,
a sparkle, a glow.
Oh, he knew it.
It wasn’t accidental, no, he knew it.
He smiled and seemed to tell me so, all through it.
He knew it, I know.

He’s real and the world is alive and shining
I feel such a wonderful drive toward Valentining.

He touched me.
I simply have to face the fact : he touched me.
Control myself and try to act as if I remember my name.

But he touched me.
He touched me and suddenly nothing is the same.
Cause he touched me.
He touched me and suddenly nothing (3x) is the same.
