Eyes of The Beholder

I once had to prove to you that I was real,
When your heart questioned the sincerity of my heart;
And when time whispered your answer
My own heart questioned your existence
Because you were almost to good to be real,
To good to be in love with me---
Even as I kissed the softness of your skin
And smelled the warm sweet scent of your essence.

It seems my heart grows fonder by the thoughts,
Of dreams and beauty the spring bestows,
Erasing the memories of loneliness and doubt,
Comforting my soul, if just for today
Until I am left with a reflection and a broken mirror
Trying to convince the many facets of myself…
That I am real.

Marcel
