You were my perfect poem Brief but of many lessons Our life was the perfect paradox For love I thought we could rhyme You hated all I ever loved,I loved all you hated You said dirt was clean and the sun was cold You desired tears for years And resisted all advances of happiness All you hated I had to forsake For our love was at stake But like a toddler you had fun with my feelings Leaving our blindest love in darkness reeling Yet my greatest victory was losing you My severest pain was my sweetest gain You schooled me through experience My all-time worst teacher You were my perfect poem Eternity would be short to describe the undescribable For when my hand is strong to hold the pen Then my heart is weak to pen the words
