My life up until then



Had been a series of ups and downs,

A lot of downs and few ups,

It was a meeting by chance,

It was a fluke, a one-in-a-million.

 

I saw her and instantly loved her,



I know the cynics would protest,

But I know my heart better than any of you,

That's why you're a cynic after all,

I know I fell in love.

 

She was a vision in my eyes,



An aura of perfection surrounded her,

I knew her from another time,

Another incarnation, it was destiny?

I thought it was meant to be.

 

We bonded and entwined,



I have never known this feeling,

I was hooked, lined and sinkered,

She was my heart, my soul, my everything,

If I had it, I would have given more.

 

We became inseparable,



We had so many things in common,

I grew to love her more than I already did,

This was difficult as I already adored her,

I couldn't love her enough.

 

We held hands everywhere,



My heart beat with pride to be with her,

Yes, she loves me, she loves me, not you,

I was ten feet tall, my shoes defied gravity,

Her gaze ignited my soul.

 

We had our ups and downs,



More ups than downs I thought,

And I never stopped feeling like I did,

In lines five to fifteen of this poem,

I never decreased in my love for her.

 

We treasured the nature that surrounded us,



She spoke words that I understood,

They made me feel things I'd never felt,

I'd never loved until her,

She was the first to unwrap my heart.

 

I loved the way she talked,



I loved the way she walked,

I loved everything about her,

Even the things she wasn't so keen on,

I even loved her freckles, she didn't.

 

I loved her with this intensity,



And told her every day,

I had my problems, life had been cruel sometimes,

But I never doubted how much I loved her,

That was for always.

 

I didn't see this ending,



I thought we would grow old together,

I looked forward to evolving with her,

I looked forward to our old hands, still holding,

Her hair less brown, more grey, but still beautiful.

 

This was not to be,



A shadow came between us,

And I lost her in the darkness of it,

My core still yearns for her still,

But, she is no longer mine.

 

My heart and mind are still hers though,



They call to her, silently, day and night,

But she is far away, and cannot hear them,

The worlds we live in now are galaxies apart,

I still inhabit the world we shared together, alone.
