Love Poem: Silent Space

Silent Space

There is a glimmer in my eyes 
In my step a nice spring
Because it is you I thought about
When I woke up this morning

The world seems new and bright
Even though it’s a dark winter morning sans light
Your presence in my heart makes it with gusto beat
And even a trivial glass of water feels like a treat

The thought of meeting you, fills me with contentment and joy
Like a warrior victorious in the battle of Troy
I wish I could mount on the fastest mare
And gallop into your arms, before my heart does tear

My prayers are answered and I meet you
You rush into my arms and I dissolve into you
The world ceases to exist; I see not a sight or a face
It is silence all around, like the vacuums of space

To such a pleasurable void, I wish we could go
Where everything stops, time freezes, doesn’t flow
Where every emotion is pure in texture and taste
In such a silent void, our love we celebrate
