  Once Upon a Time…

 

 

Once upon a time when love was true

When I lived just to breathe in your air

Occupy a temporary space in your presence

Acknowledgement of my existence wasn't necessary

Just 2 observe U in daily habitat was enough 4 me

From memory now: one deep breath, the smell of your hair, freshly wet & shampooed lingers still

A pool of water forms at your feet- as if in reverence

To the natural beauty that you are

And the beauty that resides in your soul

Once upon a time when you were mine

The world was perfect, life was beautiful

Once upon a time was a lifetime ago.

 

(not sure when this was written, but obviously written after being disenchanted.)
