She Was and Is

She was beautiful
    The sun shone through every crevice of her soul.
    She was  perfect.
    She had the understanding of a million stars shinning light years away
    So bright and so illuminating
    She was the epitome of perfection
    Produced  by the energetic dreams of old
    Vivid and so tantalizing
    I couldn’t erase the memory of her

    I couldn’t go a day without closing my eyes and not seeing her beautiful face
    She was  my Mona Lisa. A conundrum. An enigma.
    She was my life! My everything.
    My world would spin out of its orbit..
    Crash and burn out. If  she wasn’t there.

    In my head I write poetry. But struggle to put them into functioning words and sentences
    There meanings echoing within every heart beat…

    You were my salvation. You brought a smile to my face.
    You let the light into my darkened soul.
    The cognitive illusive illusions I succumbed to
    They disappeared, the second we touched.
    At that very moment I knew you were the one.

    “That’s when I knew the flame would never die.
    The fire never consumed me again.
    My demons cowered away inside there shells
    The shackles of doubt finally evaporated away.
    That was when I knew  that I was free.
    That was when It became clear  we were meant to be. ”
