Imagery
06/19/01

Have you ever tried so hard to find the right words to say, only to realize there are none to describe how you feel? Not even the most beautiful things on earth can quite capture it; imagery melds into a bright and swirling presence whose brilliance can only be touched by the unspoken. There seem to be a thousand pieces I can see, but to attempt to attach them together is impossible--each is free and flying, never to be tamed. I can only begin to harness these wild sparks that set me floating, only to have them delightfully scattered into a joyous frenzy once more. Even if I could capture the feeling into words, those words would remain unspoken, as I'm waiting for your touch and your voice to set me free. I long for that moment our eyes meet, hoping that yours reflect the light I know shines in mine. I dream of that comfort I know is waiting in your arms, and imagine the soft warmth radiating around you. It's all so close, and the glow has already surrounded me in a cloud so thick I can almost embrace it. I need you so badly it hurts, and love you so much I cannot perceive letting go. You are my one, my only, my everything. You're the one fire that blazes so much higher and brighter than the rest, your flames flashing before my eyes and burning inside my heart. You're the only wind that lifts me up and carries me to dizzying heights I never thought possible. You're everything I've dreamed of and everything I've wished for, and I am nothing without you. You send those sparks flying, that flame burning, that wind soaring, and I surrender to a wonderful wave of content that swells within me and calms my soul and leaves me breathless at the same time. I'm amazed, I'm inspired, I'm enraptured...
And I'm in love.
