My Anchor
My anchor
I met you on a summer day
Mists had cleared and dews long dried
The sun, blazing and scorching
Forced earthling to bow to its rays
On the day you gushed into my life.
Your immense beauty overwhelmed me
I succumed to the scent that derived from your skin
My gaze stuck on your oppulent face
On the little movements as your chest heaved in and out rapid breaths
I sensed your heart race away in a gallop to my touch
Would I ever catch up to it I wondered.
Still that day you captured my heart.
I recall your smile - so pearlescent
Your laughter- a melody of a morning lark
Like waves in a summer breeze, your voice was
Grapping my knees, overpowering me
On the day you touched my soul.
On that day, time stood still
Deathning silence enveloped the space
And but for a while, only you and I existed
Earth opened her arms and wrapped us in a warm embrace
My heart filled with gaity and bliss, your eyes shone.
You awakened me from a slumber
Decaded by lonesome and emptiness...
You breathed life, lifted me
And off my heart raced to meet up with you...
I cannot forget that day.
For once my inhibitions were lost
My resolves weakened
I forgot my status and prestige
I gave in to love.
For a moment then, my fantasy became
My own Utopia was created
And there we dwelled,
in an island with no harm or prejudice
Rejoicing in the make believe
In our own reality but for a while
Yet in my heart you existed
And there you shall remain
For my eternity and for my salvation...
