At 16

At 16 she found her once in a lifetime.
Her first heartbreak.
Her story to pass down to her daughter.
Her place where her mind would always travel in states of nostalgia.
 
At 16 she found her butterflies.
Her restless nights.
Her take-your-breath-away moments.
Her racing heartbeat.
 
At 16 she found him.
 
He made her dizzy with need.
He made her bite her lip.
He made up for every ounce of doubt in her blood with his words and his smile.
He made her toss and turn at night.
He made her lose her appetite when butterflies were fluttering anxious in her stomach.
He made her see the world differently.
He changed her view on love and life.
He taught her how to be more than the quite girl everyone thought she was.
He brought out the stronger side of her.
He brought out the tough side.
 
At 16 she found the boy who changed her life forever.
She found the one she'd never quite let go.
She found the one that made the word "forever" seem way too short.
She found the one who set the bar for everyone else.
 
At 16 she found him.
