FOR SOMEONE VERY SPECIAL

I want to write a poem

For someone very dear

Words fail me every time I try,

For I begin to cry.

Tears wet the paper

Those feelings remain alive;

Not knowing how to explain,

I drop the pen in vain!

Strolling out in the open breeze,

On those haunts, I inhale the fresh air;

Breathing in those beautiful moments,

The loss of which, torments.

I can see her sitting by the white pillar,

Everything else around in much of a blur;

Those deep eyes, those silent thoughts,

Define her presence by that spot.

I can see her smiling standing beside me,

Relating an incident, a tale, a thought;

An aura of genuineness blended with innocence,

Describes her presence in essence.

I can see her looking at the distant stars

That twinkle in her eyes with honest promise;

Holding my hand, transmitting that warmth,

She makes to me an unspoken troth.

…

Now,

Strolling along on those same haunts,

I cannot express the loss I feel,

…The loss of someone very special.
