You Were

Now, just a memory in time
 I still see your smile
   imagine your laugh,
    strain to hear your thoughts,
     wanting to touch your face,
      feel you in my arms
just once more;

you were
 heartbeats pulsating,
 each and every breath; 
 blush upon my cheek,
 feathered kisses on my lips;
 longing, aching innate desires,
 resonating on the wind,
 spring and summer breeze;
you were
 floating with the clouds,
 calm before the storm,
 warm inviting beneath the sun;
 autumn leaves in full-color palettes,
 crimson passion, precious silver and gold
 winter innocence walking in the snow;
you were
 indescribable in words
 flowing in a waltz of rhythmic poetry,
 silence in the night
 embracing feeling, touch, emotions,
 laughter in a dream
 awakened by reality
you were
 my everything.
