Your
presence
feels
like
a
cool
breeze
to me
yet-
You lit my soul on fire
the very moment our eyes met.
Your words are my ocean –
the salt of them stings but
it’s clear that they bring healing
and I’ve found
a brand new devotion to living.
Your embrace is like lavender,
it soothes my inner child,
& the fierce but tired woman
who protects her,
When your hand held mine,
it felt like a reminder-
To breathe,
and to remember,
That
today
will
also one
day
be a memory.
