Miracle

And then I go and spoil it all By saying something stupid like "I wrote a poem for you"

Spring came knocking on my door when I met you

Flowers bloomed when I wrote you a poem

Before you, there were days when I lost myself and couldn't get up from the concrete of cold rooms

Your words gave me wings and double blankets

I know I'm dead

My life was supposed to fade away

I wasn't supposed to get my breath from the soil above me and I was supposed to be alone in a coffin

Now that I'm in heaven

I have no worries and no limits

I will only kiss my angel as much as I can

I will try to protect my place in heaven

Before you, my life was as fake as the winters in the South

My tears didn't even have a taste

I didn't know the world was so colorful

Now I will tell my birthday as the day I met you

Embraced every hell we made each other go through

Only you will know my name

Because I know that no one else is real

I know that the color of babies' eyes is not clear when they are first born

But I am not afraid

I will love that baby in any way

Even if he is different

Even if there are problems in the future

He will be my baby

And I will give him all my love when he needs it

I do not believe in the miracle of creation

But I believe in the miracle of us meeting

I know that I am resurrected

And this time I will live right

This is so good Beren. It is a difficult thing to have the reader wanting to read and re-read a poem. Difficult but seemingly not for you.
Well done

[Beren]

Oh thank you so much! This made me so happy!!! Have the best day!

[Gee]

My pleasure. You too

I also like your quote and the play on the words of Frank and Nancy Sinatra.

[Beren]

Thank you!

Love this piece, so much depth and incredible feeling. The next to last stanza has a line that really struck me..."the miracle of us meeting"--
and the double blankets idea is clever.

OMG!
So romantic and intense.
Miracles happen to those who are chosen and have enough faith; things spring forward not backwards.
You are blooming as Spring is unfolding with magic and shapes.

🥹🥹 thank you so much sir, I don't even know what to say! Hope the muse of this poem likes it too.
