My Greatest Love

He looked at me,

He had eyes that were deep.

He spoke to me,

He spoke to me roughly,

But he was sweet.

He told me of music,

He told me of art,

He told me of history,

He told me of love.

We spoke of drama,

The drama that made our lives,

What they are today.

I watched him at his best,

I watched him at his worst,

He helped me at my worst,

He praised me at my best.

Together we braved the world,

To what it is today.

Together we shared thoughts,

Together we laughed.

Slowly I fell in love with him,

Slowly I let my heart take control,

Slowly I was his.

I spoke of my love,

And I was scared of it,

But we were young,

And I was foolish.

I let years pass.

I thought of him.

I forgot him.

I thought of him.

I forgot him.

He was with me,

All throughout everything.

I fell for another.

I thought of him.

I forgot him.

I left the other.

I thought of him.

I forgot him.

I spoke to him,

And our lives entwined again.

I cried to him,

I drank with him.

This time,

He held my hand.

This time,

He kissed me.

This time,

He loved me.

And I held his hand,

And he held my hand.

And I remembered the him,

The him I met years ago.

The him I am with now.

I never should have let me let him go.

Short as it was,

He was my everything again.

And as our hearts touched,

In an explosion of warm love,

What was once occupied there,

Was not there no more.

Alas,

Our time together was short lived.

Life had to go on,

And life took me away from him.

Though we are away from each other,

I think of him each and every day,

I dream of him every day.

I will remember him,

Every day,

And forever,

He is forevermore,

My one

True,

Great,

Love.

My love I will remember you.
