Love Poem: Firefly

Firefly

The day we met was unlike any other
I knew instantly you were my fire fly
the one to which all women would be compared by
the answer to every question that begins with why
an ethereal drug in which to keep me high
my love my life and heart beat
the reason to cleanup my life
the end to my rainy season and strife
the cure to my past and to my maladies
the light to cast a path to my future
my nurse and companion to heal me and mend me with suture
the illumination of the dark and lonely nights
my passion's spark my days anew
my window seat with a view
my firefly.
