I opened a gate that I had thought been closed
Something locked away once long ago
That of saddest deaths are those of the heart,
Where the soul withers and breaks apart

I pointed this out to her and made my plea
Spelled out so well and carefully
And hesitated, afraid to make unclear
The point of which I wanted her to hear

She gazed first with those luminous eyes
That traveled from my heart, then to meet mine
An instant became frozen forever then
As the words resounded, ‘You are everything’

In that brief moment bathed in her glow
It was then and there that I came to know
Of love that echoes between her and me
Which shall resound all through eternity

This is so very beautiful, my friend. *S* I've missed your incredible rhymes! *S*
