Saving Me

A poem about the closest person I have.

I still remember how I was when you found me,

Broken bruised and all but dead,

Anyone else would have ignored me,

But not you.

You cared,

Without even hearing your voice,

I knew it was beautiful,

Caring and perfect.

For the first time in my life,

I felt something,

Something real,

Even though we had never really met.

Slowly I pulled myself out from depression,

With your guidance I became real,

Even though then,

I never knew how far we'd come.

Even now I can't believe it,

How close we are,

How much I've changed,

How perfect you are.

Everything about you.

Your hair,

Unique.

Your voice,

Mesmering.

Your eyes.

Beautiful.

But still you don't realise how amazing you are,

So I'll spend our lives showing you,

Engagement,

That's happening now.

Marriage and kids,

Well,

That'll happen in the future.

Your perfection,

That'll always last.

And our love?

Our love breaks any measurement.

cynicalbeliever,

Tragedy tantalizes each one of the senses and envelopes emotions, including love. What is love, we question - perfectly described here, within your words. You can feel the compassion she portrays to you, the excitement, and love.

Your tragedy has been worth - especially if your work is concerned.

Our love breaks any measurement...wonderful.

You actually sound like your writing of the same girl as I scribble about occasionally with the lines of her hair, eyes and voice... intoxicating. She is my ‘she’ and you are lucky to have found yours so early.

Your love poem here was a splash of cold water on my face when I am about to fall asleep (it woke me up in ways; I need to go say I am sorry).

Enjoyed your poem, keep writing.

Thank you for sharing,

Legacy

By the way, have you entered into any of the Poetic Infusion Society's contest yet? If not Love would be the way to go...

Everytime I read this I cry!! I can't put my emotions into words like that and you know it so three cliched words will have to do :)
I love you.
