Unfinished Symphony

You were a drifting melody

That came to greet me
When I least expected it.
First impressions did not last, and you took
Little time to seize my heart's attention;
So simple was your charm, creating
A soulful, desirous effect;
You hardly knew that you were tugging at the strings of my heart
Each time you strummed a chord.
Visions of blind trust, trusting faith and faithful truth
Suddenly became so clear to me.
You were Innocence, which reached out to me;
Touched me,
Then held me in its powerful grasp.
I remember the first night
When I cried for you.
Because I felt for you...
Because life creates circumstances that can ask devastating questions which have no answers...
Because I wanted to find the answers.
Because I wanted to love you...
Because you deserve to be loved.
Stolen moments we had together left me
Longing to replace the missing pieces
And fill the chasms you try to hide
With a smile and a song on your lips.
I remember the first time
When I cried for myself
Because I wanted you to comfort me...
Because I was lost in a sea of confusion so vast that I couldn't get out...
Because I knew you'd understand.
Because I needed you to wipe my tears away...
Because I felt you cared.
Secret passion bearing fruit
In the form of sweet indulgence
So sinful; yet nothing was more delightful,
Or more mellifluous, than the sound of the silent cacophony.
Harmonization of hedonism; tenderness of touch; the mélange of music
Made me want to dwell forever in the halcyon
Woven of dreams, wishes and desires;
Of love, hope and longing;
Of magic, happiness and mystery...
A place where our love would be shared...
A world of our own, which does exist...
Only in our fantasies.
