Now.

I
don’t know now,
what mysteries your eyes tell;
not because
I
could never look into them,
without the fear
of it all slipping away;
but because you ,
never let me.


I
don’t remember
the feel of your hands in mine;
and it was not
I
who made me forget,
what it was like
to hold them with ease;
but the memory I had,
eroded itself.

I
don’t smile
at our song anymore;
even though
I
feel every note burst,
as true as the voice
that said it loved;
but inside me,
the voice grew silent.

I
don’t recognize
what lucidity your words hold;
not because
I
am lost within their maze,
of contradictions
and fear.
But because from these,
love, never broke free.

You have turned pain into something so beautiful, so pure, so lovely, that it is almost enticing.

Yours is the only poetry I love to read... It's so very romantic, moving, melancholic... Ultimate!

To be able to experience, understand, and express things such as these is what sets one apart from all the low things in the world. You're beautiful. And you know what I mean.

You echo my thoughts,
ive said those same words to someone else once.
As long as i have such conversations and kidred spirits, i refuse to believe that there is no brilliance in today's world,
and thats where the beauty lies.

thank you.
