Poem: From Time to timelessness
You stole from me
When I was young and fragile
You took away my mother
Never to be seen again
You hid her from my eyes
But I held onto her
Through the blood in my veins
I am forever in her heart
And she is forever in my mind, body and soul
Now you brought me a new desire
You saw the passion wrapped around my neck
The emptiness in my heart
And made my dream come true
You opened my eyes
To the mystery of life
You bestowed upon me
Your precious gift
To understand
Sorrow and pain
I needed a brutal lesson
Tears were not enough
To teach me Love
You gave me Silence
To unravel the mystery of Love
You gave me
Joy and laughter
You served me peace
I am a witness
Of your brutality
And your Love
I am a petri-dish
For your home made fantasy
I am a recipe
For your pain and your Love
I am a monument
For your tears and your laughter
I am a path
For your light and your darkness
You made me into day and night
Removing the curtain from my eyes
You gave me the keys to timelessness (eternity)
An existence beyond you
