Once
A time it seems so far ago
we had a special love
our bliss was heaven's
shining light
held so tightly to our hearts.
Transparent highways sending messages of love
with the communion of our bodies
as a connection, comfortable in
one another's eyes and speaking silence
in the caressing of your skin; language spoken
softly in the massaging of her thighs.
You were always on my mind
an addiction of euphoria
that had captured
all my love and all my thoughts
translucently given
with nothing there to hide.

After we had split apart
what once was special eternity
that I felt could never end or ever die
ceased to be and the communication
of our bodies touch,
or conveyance of our love
in the kiss of our lips
was now no more. Those same highways
barren, empty as the emotion that remained.
No longer could we continue speaking in the
silence of a gaze or the essence of a touch.
How odd I felt
that I'd been delt
this way
from the girl that I could love
completely and so much.
So now I've been looking to reconnect
the highways of affection
are looking to unite
with another girl to share my love
all day and through the night.
Yet every once in while
I look back and remember
the electricity between
me and my first love.
The translation of our communication
was ours and ours alone
as she was my inspiration
ever since our hearts
had beat as one.
And so I wonder if she thinks of me?
Does she really think of me,
as I think of her?
And what we had...
or what we could have been?
