G

Watching her leave is a blade to my side

She is the greatest nightmare that has ever cursed these bones

And with every glance and every utterance of my name I fall weaker and weaker.

She leaves me with nothing but the lingering redolence of roses

And a trembling mouth that aches for one last kiss.

I am consumed by her

I am incapable of removing her from my mind

She has become intertwined with my very bones and my flesh.

And at last

At last, I can look into the soul of another 

I can see the infinite universe and recognize that every thing worth living for in this vast expanse

Rests softly in her eyes.
