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...
