Loss of light

I spend my days from the moment I open my eyes trying to hold on to a dream. The dream of you and your touch, your scent , your form. My mind wonders to your face your and the look in your eyes as you see the love in me. I was just a man before my heart opened and you steped in. Now my world has no color not taste and I can't feel nothing but pain and loss. You are like a rose in winter a flower that should not bloom but you shine and and are so bright. I am a better man knowing you and will never recover. I knew my place in this world and without that path I am lost in a sea of poppies . I never planned for my world to be touched and without that feeling nothing else matters. It's like tasting maple syrup and sunshine. I crave what was taken away from me and I will do what I must to hold on to that sunshine. I am that man for you the lover who will stand , fight , laugh , cry for you . Because your love, your smile matters to me.
