I smile by myself as the mind plays its daily show of my memories. Today it chose one particular theme: love. For today, like any other day, the main star of today’s movie is none other than. . .
As I write this and look for words to describe the emotions flowing in my system I can not help but realise I am smiling by the thought alone. I type this with the fluidity and grace of a pianist creating beautiful music with his fingers. Like the music of the pianist, the keys I type to create this poetry no man can never fully understand. However, I type to create this poetry that man can not help but be captured and moved by its beauty. Beauty that fails in comparison to you.
I sit and wonder where we went wrong when love is all I poured into you. You are the one woman who was able to understand my spirit and soul when most women end up at my heart. Your name, like honey on my tongue when I say it. Your love has been all I ever needed to survive. Or rather, your love was the light in the darkness that brought me home. I wish this letter I could write and deliver to you in the same way I did before. The pleasure of seeing you blush and become red around the cheeks as you read my love-filled yet sloppy description of what you do to me remains the greatest pleasure I have ever felt. And you being as beautiful as you are, made the feeling even more pleasurable by appreciating me with a kiss that still leaves me licking my lips- hoping to taste your lipstick once again.
I Give Thanks you took the time to love me when I was unlovable. Through you I saw and realised my true worth as a man but, most importantly as a child of God. I pray our paths will be strengthened and that they will emerge to be greater than before. The arrow that has your name written on it that Cupid used to piece my heart is still lodged deep in my heart. Ever since I met you, my life has been brighter than ever. Sometimes it gets so bright I pull out a red umbrella so I can see life through red filters. See life through red eyes so that I can see the life-giving-love you pumped into me guide my every step in life.
I Give Thanks you will be forever eternal in my life. You have always been and always will be the One. Even when I step at Heaven’s Gates I will tell Saint Peter to send me back on Earth. Simply because I will fear to tell Jesus that He gave me you and I failed to love you the way you deserved to be loved.
Your smile like a rising sun over the ocean, your voice as sweet and smooth like charmeuse silk to my ears. It would take me all the written dictionaries of all languages to fully tell you how beautiful you are. The day I count all the stars in the universe and collect all the grains of the sand, only then will I stop feeling your love course in my body. You are my life’s greatest gift. The treasures of my heart I saw manifest in your eyes. You are the woman that I would dream about it and wish to start to a family with. In you there is no imperfection or flaw hence I find your love perfect.
I freeze looking for further words to add to this poetry. Further words to tell you just how much you are to me. It proves difficult looking for the words to create the portal that will teleport you into my mind so you can relive these memories with me. As alive you are in me, I hope I am alive in you as well. I pray I never disappoint you and if I did, or I do, sorry will not be enough to show you my sincerity of my apology and that I will never do it again. My heart still beats to the frequency you tuned it to.
The frequency of being touched by you.
