Our love
Was something that burned like a star too far for our eyes to see-
Burning out before it had already begun.
Our love
Taught me that smiling could be something I didn't need to have a reason to do. It taught me that every flaw in me was a strength not a weakness, was a unique stone in my castle walls.
Walls you climbed to tear down and reconstruct with greater integrity, with love in each brick lain.
The moat you filled with fish and your love created gardens among the overgrown brush.
Your hands held the thorned roses and wrapped them in silken scarf, handed them to me with bleeding hands and still told me how beautiful you thought my eyes were in the sun.
Your sun nourished me.
Brought with it birds and songs and endless laughter.
Even when thunderstorms of tears threatened the sun light you always found a way to place a rainbow in the sky, promising me I would never have to worry.
I used the colors you brought into my life and painted for you simple days,  but you always seemed to run with them, turn them into masterpieces. You were able to take a walk and turn it into an adventure.
You took the colors and became a prism, scattering them into the world, brightening everything you touched!
