There is something about that first meeting, the clash of eyes.
Things you instantly know, so perfectly out of the blue.
How the other reads your body language, deciphers, how she responds.
You will never converse faster and louder than in this primary silence.

What you do next is the most powerful thing you'll ever do.
It will determine the faces of your kids, if any, and if they smile.
It will build a house for you down the road, or a flat in LA.
It will tear the fabric of time and draw down the stars, just for the better view.

In moonlight or in sunshine, come rain, come thunder.
The dots line up, connect to form one body of two.
You will remember where it happened for a lifetime.
Your actions carve out your memories from this shining point.

The moments are wild like deer, there and gone in seconds.
A miniscule window of action - hesitate, and you remain alone in the woods.
The telltale signs are loud and clear, thoughts only pollute and delay.
When you see her, you will know the lay of the land like a native.

It is something in the way she moves, the lightness in her step.
It is the unrelenting gravity pull and the nuclear force of touch.
It is her lingering scent that you want to curve into a constant.
It is the sheer heart attack of the way she arcs.
I was inspired in the best way possible.

"I was inspired in the best way possible."

Sure sounds like it! Every last stanza was flawless. I have no critique.
