ETERNITY IN A BLINK

Eyes locked, hearts spoke.
Love knocked, feelings woke.
I smiled, she blushed.
She mirrored, i gushed.

I was the fire, but i melted .
She was ice,  but "sun-hot".
Time danced slow as our minds began to plot,
a story forged through the fire of desire,
Inked with hearts that synced in accord, 
strangers, familiar along the pages of prospects.

Wedding bells rang,
"here comes the bride" sang.
Flowers crafted perfumed symphonies,
as the altar witnessed intertwining of destinies.

"I do", with eyes of admiration and deep reassuring voice, 
i spoke to her soul.
She opened the floodgates to her milky teeth,
eyes dilated with tears of joy, taking in this moment of bliss, 
Her chocolate lips, marinated in cherries, made love and bore sweet words as she began the vows.

I couldn't hold it together, as i anticipated her seal to the covenant,

"I..."  

Before she could write our story in the stars,
Our thoughts were cut short, by a voice that robbed....
My soulmate, in his arms.
