Life Unexpected

Laughter was a distant myth
Lost somewhere in the ether
A correct response to people
Foreign was the melodic sound

The feeling inside was void
Rarely was it truly felt
A numbness had taken over
Spreading almost infectiously

Then you appear out of nowhere
Pale blue eyes of an ocean
Silently sparkling with magic
Captivating the inner soul

Crashing with Hurricane force
We collide unexpectedly
Life altering turn of events
As we physically touch the first time

A current pulling me in
Showing with torrential heat
As passion drenches every pore
Saturating The Nothingness

What a meaningful write.
I love how it transformed from emptiness to so much fullness (passion) after meeting someone so loving.

"Then you appear out of nowhere
Pale blue eyes of an ocean
Silently sparkling with magic
Captivating the inner soul"

These lines, filled with so much enchantment. Oh how I enjoyed this..

No problem

It is amazing how much of a difference a person can make in someone's life! You have captured that very poetically in this beautiful poem. The difference is a whole world away from the world one was used to. The transition makes an amazing difference. Lovely work! Thank you for sharing...

I believe sometimes God sends us people to shine some light when we need it the most

Fortunes and romances can turn on a dime and make change. Such a hopeful poem. I enjoyed the read. F.

Life and passion can change quite quickly and we should cherish the amazing moments as they come about

Such beautiful wording to describe the numbness, and vibrant pictures for the entrance of the hurricane force, great work :)

[Poetic Beauty]

Thank you. Numbness and feeling the vast void aren’t pleasant emotions or lack of rather. And when something or someone comes along and emotions return it can be like a hurricane force

[Patricia]

oh those with those blue eyes! they are spellbinding! Beware before yielding but when you do you are his forever. I know this person, I married this person. Love this write.

How wonderful to have that awful feeling of void replaced by something which brought you truly alive. Passion does that. You can forget everything else in those moments. Beautifully crafted PB.

Thank you Chris. Oh Mr Blue Eyes and his mischievous ways. Even if unconventional it is an amazing adventure.

[Chris Shaw]

If it works for you both and it’s not hurting anyone else, then why not :) Have a lovely day.

Sometimes this unexpectedness offers '...We collide unexpectedly...' and we forgive the rest partially.

He appeared within my life when least expected. It’s a longer story but I’m grateful for the adventure and it’s still on going even if unconventional

[Papaya]

Such a wonderful feeling to be caught by unexpected feelings like this and swept away.
Nice feels, PB.

[Poetic Beauty]

It was completely unexpected and what I need to come out of the void. To realize that I could feel and be happy. That I simply needed a boost lol

[Thomas W Case]

Beautiful work. Excellent imagery.

[Poetic Beauty]

I’m glad you liked the imagery

[Jibey]

A pleasing description of an emotional journey from one world to another, from emptiness to fulness, from dark to light, from coldness to warmth... overwhelmingly saturated with each other's presence.

[Poetic Beauty]

Exactly!! It is a magical thing.
