My dearest Arti,so precious, so fair,
What I wouldn't give to stroke that face,
Or to smell the fragrance of your hair.
In your eyes is a furnace ignited,
And my passion flares in like,
You encapture my soul in the moment,
You trap me in your eyes.
Every time I gaze there,
I hear the oceans song,
My beautiful siren whenever I hear,
My heart succumbs to your call.
More precious than the rarest of gems,
Is your essence which is my lure,
I'd put on hold my many friends,
To hold you just a moment more.
To breathe just one more breath with you,
To share your life for just an hour,
Is to me like the sweetest bloom,
Of the freshest, most beautiful flower.
Oh how you captivate me!
I gaze into the boundless skies,
And all I see is you,
Like you're lost somewhere in my eyes.
Every morning I awake alone,
I turn round and trace the spot,
Where in my mind I wish you were,
But in reality you are not.
Your absence is like a sorrowful cancer,
It deteriorates me every day,
Eating my soul through to the core,
And leaving only the remains.
It leaves me hollow, feeling empty,
As though I lost my soul through your eyes,
So now that we're apart you have the best of me,
And my empty shell is left to die.
It's because of this little thing,
This little condition called love,
That I need you like you're insulin,
You're the craving to this addiction.
Like the sun without the moon,
The moon without the sky,
Is my life without you,
And you, without I.
Every day you take me higher,
The deeper that I fall in love,
Your presence leaves my heart inspired,
So I write with the peace of a dove.
As a gently floating feather,
Being wafted through the air,
Is the calm I feel in the soothing river,
Of your tender loving care.
As I write now, I can write forever,
For though you are not here,
When I animate my affection on paper,
Sweet solcace engulfs me from my lonely despair.
I know my words cannot capture,
The essence of your soul,
Which is the sweetest of all lovesongs,
And the reddest, most tender rose.
It is the most gracious of melodies,
The mightiest of all oceans,
The finest most sophisticated of symphonies,
And the most enchanting love potion.
As the highest eagle flying,
To the most homely comforting crest,
I pledge my love to thee undying,
To the sanctuary of your rest.

My goodness someone inspires you to lofty heights of devotion. This is quite a poetic declaration!! How lucky this person is to have such lovely things penned in their honor. Welcome to Poetry Land...nice to have you here with us.

If all the tear drops went to heaven
And if all the pain was confined ...
Would I be your salvation
could I make your spirit shine.
