I Almost Loved You

Stormdancer :)

 

I want to write about the way

nighttime revolved around you

in the moon-darkened silence

and how the stars splashed across your face

in silver shadows.

 

I want to write about the way

your whispers

spilled from your lips like wine

and how your skin

held so many delicious secrets.

 

I want to write about the way

you breathed my name

as if it were a song,

and the way your laughter

bounced off the skies.

 

I want to write about the way

your tears fell

like broken diamonds,

and how your breath

gave me life.

 

I want to write about you -

of your beauty

and how it transcends me.

and I want to write about the way

I almost loved you...
