the_memory_of_your_smile
daf Dearest Lia,

There have been
on this journey
many wonders there
some small
others great
fragile
fleeting and rare
there's a day I know, when
having known them all
I'll love them all
But above them all..

Surpassing all blessings
seen and known
across those many miles
none could illuminate me quite
like the memory of your smile

A heaving sigh
and soulful breath
the quickened timing
of my chest
the window of my eye
no flawless flower
nor perfect power
has found
its way to find
like your smile
your face
your hands
your eyes
all held steadfast
to mine

Life's psalm
come to tend
to my construction
my instruction
manna from heaven
crowning acquaintance
of my while:
to have enriched
my spirit's treasury
with the memory
of your smile.

Your ever adoring,

In_Bloom When I see a picture of myself smiling in a way I don't care for.
I see you in that smile, your smile and it makes everything fine.

unhinged your_hands
your_lips
your_voice


still lamentable to lack them
all wrapped up neatly in
you


(i think maybe there will always be a part of me
that misses you)
