My Artisan Masterpiece

she was an artisan masterpiece-
              delicately full of mystery,
yet colorful and magnetic.

                                        she drove me crazy,
                        like a charcoal etching in heat.

she was a silhouette of my existence-
                        craving to be one with...
     no one else except me. 

I knew nothing of love before her-
              I only sought things that made me imperfect. 
but-
she is perfection and amplitude all in 
one piece of work of art...
                      and I am undeserving. 

                  she was an hourglass,
longing for each grain to pass through her thirsty soul.

she was flawless yet messy, 
    mature and abundant in beauty.

I never knew why she chose me-
              I may never realize my significance.
there is one thing I know for sure,
she brings light to my darkness and
                           sanity to my confusion.

her artistic creation has spoken... my soul awoken.
