The Girl With the Purple Dress

Love is the Breath of Life

I thought I could write

but my pen had run out of ink

I thought I could see

but realised I was blind

I thought I coud hear soft sweet music

but only silence was around

I thought I knew love and all it's ways

but then I saw you

Heard you sing

and thats when I knew, I knew nothing at all

For no words ever spoken

could explain you

or describe you

No song ever sung

could ever tell the beauty of you

And no other eye

could see

what I behold each time  I gaze upon you

This makes me think of an old story… I don't mean a story I've read a while ago, but an aged one, if that makes sense. It's beautiful… I can almost see her, and I can certainly imagine someone sitting at a table with the lights down low writing this with a feather pen.

Oh isn't this lovely!! And I don't mean the photo either... Beautifully expressed

Perfectly sincere! Great love poem, I feel as though these words described how I used to feel about my ex perfectly, well, like a year ago maybe, but still, great display of emotion, great way to capture the feeling.
