You haven't been around. And ever since you've been gone, I look at other women... all the time. The inviting allure of a glistening smile. The sparkle of the light in thoughtful eyes. The sexiness of soft curves in motion. I had never been one to ogle, Wanting to avoid turning on the 'creep'. And I have no interest in anything more than a glance. But it began happening gradually when I caught myself. And after I thought about it for awhile, I realized why. It sounds unfair, but each person I see Gets compared... to you. The body may not match. The hair a different tint and length. The tattoos instinctually missing. But I always discover subtle resemblances That no one else can see. It's true. I see you. I see your smile. I see your eyes. I see your movement. And I miss having you near everyday. You have become my standard for which beauty is measured. It is drawn from a resplendence that embraced my heart; And embodied in the unique perfection Of your seductive care and being. While my eyes see what anyone else could deem attractive, My mind is visualizing you. Right there. Wherever I go, in everyone I see. I plan to continue looking. Just know that I'm looking for you. Only you. I never want your loveliness to fade. I will wish for it each day the rest of my life. Forever, and again. RF 10/23/16 9:37pm |
