Your smile
Breaks the horizon
After a black night
The vaccum
Of space ******
I’m glad
I touched bases
With you
And returned
To earth
The quest
To find myself
Left me lost
Selfishly
I left you
Alone
You selflessly
Let me leave
On the eve
Of our future
Because
You believed
The best
Rested in me
Yes, indeed
And rest assure
Your good deed
Did
Not go unnoticed
Your big heart
Pounds
With the sound
Of a goddess
Your prowess
Makes my poetry
Look like
The dullest prose
I owe
What beauty I have
To you
All I can offer
An exchange
For you staying by my side
Is to never
Alter
Or change again
Because of pride
