When You Love Someone

When you love someone. When you love someone, they possess your whole mind they're in control of your entire body, soul and time. When you love someone, their absence is cruel torture dark shadows of solitude follow their brisk departure. When you love someone, your darkness turns to light their moonlight brightens even your blackest night. When you love someone, you love their imperfections idiosyncrasies, irritations melt under love's reflection. When you love someone, it's complete and forever time seems to stand still, whenever you're together. When you love someone, you always put them first living altruistically, allowing love's illusion to burst. When you love someone, their smile mesmerizes supplanting desperation with hopeful surprises. When you love someone, your whole life changes disillusion cedes to hope, your mind, it rearranges. When you love someone, you feel totally complete desires satiated with pleasurable emotions replete. John Derek Hamilton December 15, 2015

Thanks Linda it's rather a simple one, the absence is more vividly described in my black hole of solitude, I would appreciate a comment if you have time. John
