She Was

She was the picture of peace for my spirit That picture that said “it’s ok” when I saw it She was of a good nature mellow down to earth So worthy that everyday was joyful because of her being my perk She was my illusion that God is walking on earth The thought of being with her was of a protection from ones guardian In her eyes was the comfort my heart seek And with her ears that she would always listen when I speak Her lips was for utter, utter words of with mellow voice and Slay the dragon in me with a gentle touch of greetings She was not of material but of life’s blessings And with her I was rich with no pressure to fulfill the unwanted She was what I have always dreamt of Filling excitement like a miner From 9 to 5 after hard work of torturous terrain Coming back home was like a vacation that was worth the wait Knowing that I will be healed from the pain The pain instilled by the day strains With her I knew that life will never be the same For it was when she accepted me it was a life time gain But none the less all is but a fading picture Fading from one drop of my tear that she was Everything is now a tattoo on my heart A constant reminder that she was and will never be is Days and nights have broken with sweat just for retention But instead it was the fading picture that was becoming clear Clear that she will stay was and no chance or option for is again
