With You There Was No Me

No one ever loved anyone the way I loved you. I loved every piece of you. Your smile. Your eyes. Your chin. Your neck. Your mistakes. Your laugh. Until I didn’t….. No one ever had a taught anyone the things you taught me. No one ever thought you were as smart as I did. No one ever had a relationship like ours. Did they? No one ever had a passion like ours. Sure we were horrible to each other sometimes, But it was our sensual love-play, and making up was wonderful! Until it wasn’t. No one ever made me laugh as hard as you did. No one ever made me fight as hard as you did. No one ever delighted me or enlightened me Until I met you. I look back on our love and I laugh and smile. Not sure what is real, what is embellished or what is a lie. All I know is that I loved you with all of myself Until I didn’t. Thank you for leaving me, and giving me a chance to find me. That is what was missing, and I did not know until you were gone.
