I couldn't’t wait to leave, to escape the clutching
hands of despair, the bright lights of the city had
called for me when I found you there.
You showed me the inside of my self with such
clarity and painted my dreams without restraint,
the soft hues of light reflect off the beauty of your
eyes you said .......“so let me paint”.
Covering my heart with each brush stroke
of tenderness you gave a privileged life and
guided me to be a "princess"
Your vision of me painted on canvas in red silk
loosely draped lying on a chaise, my expression
of complete surrender,.....long black hair cascading
over one breast, “ pale skin a beautiful contrast to
my red painted "lips,.......", you said.
You saw in me what I had failed to see, you made
me feel like I could fly, that I could be and do anything,
I always wondered why you were so taken.....
you’d say “I can see the depth "of your soul, .... your essence".
You changed the colors of my soul brought me
back to life all captured on canvas, and what we
shared I will never forget and gave each other
what we needed most,
........... in that time and season.
