My Only Love

Many nights I cried myself to sleep..
Tears had rolled and flowed ..
A waterfall of tears..
Had fallen upon my pillow..
A pillow soaked..
A residue of tears upon my pillow..
My only love you were..
Why have you disengaged ?
Only you have opened my heart
Right from the start..

My only love you were..
Your sweet kisses 
Your warm embrace..
How may it be you no longer exist
I weep for you my love..
The weeping persists.. 

My only love you were..
I only pray for your presence ..
Only for a moment..
I miss you so ..
As I carry a deep scar of emptiness..

My love ..
My prayers have been answered..
My only love you were..
It has been confirmed
Your divine energy had illuminated through me..
I felt your eternal love..
It expanded all throughout my physical body..
It had merged with my soul..
Within me..
The expansion exploded into one..
We were one..
Together..  

I opened my eyes ..
I knew at that exact moment ..
We are infinity..
My only love you were.. 
Was..
Is..
Now..
Forever..
Our love is infinity ..

Simply beautiful poetry, Robertina! So gorgeously expressive. I was listening to the jazz classic, "My One and Only Love" by John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman while reading this splendid poem. It was a perfect meld. Love and smiles always. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_tASy0ITrg
