If She Were Never There

If she were never there 
who else could be
at once sensual and sublime
in form and style?

In her absence,
Who will match
her eloquence and diction 
and entwine me 
with an embrace divine?
 
At  times what she says
is short and terse
so I fail to know her quick,
yet her words hum long in my heart
in an enigmatic tune deep,
but If she ceases to be, What will
this heart do in its rib-cage?

If she does exist,
emotions
raw  or refined 
How will I lay bare 
and share what sits
In the cave of this heart?

A beauty that can enter any Heart 
In trails, tribulations and triumphs caught
She the Poetry, is the epitome of Art,
her absence I can fathom not.
