Her Name Is Also Gracious

Her beauty terrifies me—
She's a girl I couldn't imagine, a girl I couldn't see.

Her soul is eternal, where the elders still gather,
Like a breeze that never rests, circulating and touching
Every corner of the earth, eternally nurturing,
Carrying out the mystery of existence.

She is admired by many, but few understand
Her majestic balance of self and others,
Gently guided by her inner voice, her nature's wisdom.

She may never know my passion for her,
I'm just a servant in her journey, a tiny pixel
In the vast picture of her life, hoping for a passing thought,
If I'm lucky.

She's the most beautiful woman I've ever met.
Her distant and faint memory is enough to calm
A restless mind. Her grace is like that of an angel,
Her face reminiscent of ancient beauty, her desires pure.

A life lesson concluded
When parting ways with you.
