even now

your kisses brought the blush

back to my cheeks

my kisses tattooed your soul

your words refilled

the empty ewer inside me

through imagery and metaphor

we brought parts of us to life

parts we never really knew

yes, we were alive together 

more alive than we are apart

and even now

i think of you as  my

”happily ever after”

"yes, we were alive together
more alive than we are apart"
As someone who has just gone through a breakup, all these romantic poems break my heart over and over again. Yet somehow they make me believe in love again. Oh, what a wonderful poem, thank you.
