My heart crashed
As I stood on the sidelines
You played
To an adoring crowd
Inside me fear
Tore away
As it has done before
I had seen her
Lock into my lover's eyes
Take him into promises
Of her paradise
Then she looked at me
As women do
To announce
Pending victory
Lost in that turmoil
I gazed at you
Handsome violinist
Young prince of music
Your violin courting
Throbbing hearts
Minds filled with desire
My eyes fluttered
You held them
I felt avenged
In found promises
Yours into mine
I stayed fixed
From song to song
You stroked from chords
Into my need
Surfaced from imagined doom
Of lost love
And unforgettable pain
Whole and lovely
Into the center
Of your visual embrace
You came
In that moment in time
When I needed lifting
From sinking into regret
Into memories of loss
Where you sent by Fate
That very second
Your song a wave
To lift me from the gulf
I was falling into
It matters not
The moment passed
As he came back
From where he denied
Ever going
To love me again
