Legacy of Your Smile

i knew that somehow you were not a stranger to me that smile...unforgettable a sense that i have known you well a distant echo stirs deeply within my heart for we were once dust within dust cast unto the wind by the hand of destiny do you not feel as i do is this day that stroke of irreversible fate our ancestors once whispered to the wizard of time that the second would come to pass when we would be one again is today not that promised moment in time it must be you i feel your legacy within my soul as surely as the air that i breath i have felt the tantalizing magic of your smile in a lifetime past i have tasted the richness of your soft caress there was a time my beautiful love when everything that ever mattered to me was witnessed within the re?ection of your green eyes you were unforgettable then... you are unforgettable now the memory of your gentleness lingers like perpetual twilight i feel your heartbeat deep within my own you are truly her ... as if it could not be In the space of time we call forever there was only one of you we have belonged...two as one throughout eternity as surely as dusk follows the morning dawn the legacy of your smile rests forever within my sou i have missed you more than words could ever say i lived lifetimes waiting for this day IRISH

this is a poem filled with spirits,and its magic that goes along with it. -i knew that somehow you were not a stranger to me- -you truly are her- very interesting, to see a stranger, but you know their soul so well, from within.it is always a mystery but always so clear.i see the imagery in your deep heart, one day soon i wish you will meet with her once more. -Always&Foreve Lynette
