Met you seven years ago, today
we should've popped champagne
but how could we have known at the time?
who brings champagne to a thing
not normally commemorated by champagne. Such as
you know, meeting someone
soon-to-be very great, to be sure, but
you can't be sure
first-time meetings, you have no excuse
to be sure. Well, it's been
seven years, today since
you jumped
out of your seat,
seeing me looking confused
and removed all doubt.
And each year removes more
(as doubt does tend
to accumulate then,
and now). Seven years
such luck, still and soon
to be great - both of us should find
a broken mirror, and fix it
to celebrate

Those last three lines are perhaps some of the best of yours that I've read so far. It's a really nice image that says so much in such simple phrasing.
Thank you! This is one of my favorites. And it's happy!
