your lips pouty like ruby roses,
your skin soft as silk,
your eyes, burning sapphires,
your touch like white fire,
your soul, a picture of beauty
your essence of purity,
your hair dark in it's endless strands,

your life gone with one felt stroke,
your pain like dying embers,
then you went cold as night
limp,
cold,
pale,
your smile haunting me,
your memory torturing me,
your laugh echoing,
and you were lost,
never to return
to me
