Through the Eyes of Love

~ for the one who will always have my heart ~

Of all the countless things I will remember

it’s the way you loved me just as I am

You kissed me with closed eyes and yet you saw

all that is and all that I am

 

Broken and tattered, fragile in a storm

that brewed in shadows gray upon the clouds

 ‘til you released the rainbow colored hue

of beauty once in disarray

 

You rose to me as gently as the tide

with love as deep and peaceful as the sea

and reaching for you now you’re swept away

still the greatest love somehow stays

 

Bound and tethered to you, we still breathe

on winds of warmth that tease away the rain

on seabirds songs that fill the tender place

where my heart beats  only for you

 

Through setting suns and twilight painted dreams

and misty dawns in soft lavender blue

may it be your memory that keeps me here

missing you, yet there’s serenity

 

Yes, I believe in angels, for with your love

I found strength I never knew, but perhaps

you saw it when you kissed me with closed eyes

all that is and all that I am

That's a very strong outspoken piece...great job! It's funny how love can give us so much to talk and write about, huh? It's such a strong subject and I'm sure I'm not the only one that can say that too. You picked a great subject to talk about, my friend! Sorry I was late about reading and reviewing your work, but I guess it was worth the wait! Great writing and keep on writing! Hopefully you'll get the time to go and check out my work too!

Love can give us strength, it can show us the beauty of the world, it can bring us peace. Your words are so lovely....but they are touched with sadness too. Love the references to the sea. A soft and lovely write, July. Great artwork to accompany your words too. Lydi**
