just like that she came

JUST LIKE THAT SHE CAME 

Expected yet unexpected 

Like i knew the city lights were to shine tonight but where had i imagined they would look this beautiful 

Just like that she came 

Just like that she came 

Snowflakes landed on delicate lashes. But how ? when i stood in a desert ? 

Just like that she came 

Just like that she came 

The sky had touched the Earth and the sun had loved the moon before the return of a silent standstill

Just like that she came

Just like that she came 

Distant roads remained untouched but an all too fast heartbeat indicated i had seen the world.

Just like that she came 

Just like that she came 

Like the impossibility of a raindrop starting a fire 

Just like that she came 

Just like that she came 

With tangled tresses and the everlasting echos of beautiful laughter

With immortality to the rose of her cheeks and the brown of her eyes

With comparison to that of a petal, let me describe her skin

With comparison to that of the depth of the sea, let me describe her mind 

With comparison to that of the heavens, let me describe her smile 

With comparison to that of words unfound, let me entirely describe her 

Just like that she came 

Just like that she came 

As if i stood still while the world fell apart 

but instead the world stood still while i fell apart

And just like that she went 

And just like that she went

This poem is beautiful. It lit me up as I started to read, it is unfortunate it has a sad end. It's as if so much has happened in an instant.
