Beautiful Mystery

A Beautiful Mystery starts at death
your quintessence is depopulated
your heart, overpowered by agony.
Life is bleak as despair overwhelms you.

A Beautiful Mystery starts at death
when half your quintessence lies underneath
when your tears by no means discontinue,
reassurance brings exasperation

A Beautiful Mystery starts at death
when your broken heart gradually mends
when your spirit little by little heals,
daily routines are no longer severe

The anonymity starts at death but 
Beauty is in our recuperation


Not a good attempt at a Sonnet, working on making it better.

Thinking of You

Thinking of You       
        
Sometimes, when one person like you are missing 
in my presence, the entire world seems depopulated. 
I miss you every night, 
occasionally I will see you in my dreams.

With you I lose myself...
without you, I find myself wanting to be lost again 
within your soul. 

My heart and my soul 
Is all I have left to give
as my emotions for you, continue to live.

I Wish …I Could give you more 
with ongoing love to explore.
I have fallen in love many times... always with you. 

because no one seems to touch my heart as you do.
If I had a single flower for every time I think of you,
I could walk forever in my garden. 
For you will be the rose growing in my heart with love and 
beauty. 

Your existence will be the sunlight in my life 
that chases away the dark emotions.
Your warm smile is like a host to my heart 
that greets me with your hospitable affection. 

Your eyes tell me things 
that your words are unable to convey
when I look into them.
I feel like I want to get lost within you 
and take an endless emotional journey in your heart too.
