How is it that you were so important? Were the qualities you possessed so special? Did you have a inescapable uniqueness Was it your irresistible likability, or Your exuding confidence that grabbed me As you showed me you.
Perhaps it was the way you moved How you stand just one leg slightly curved, not bent The slender, sure fingers working to make tea A smile which can’t help but bath bystanders In the good-natured glow of your soul Welcoming me in, as you showed me you.
Could it have been your knowing laugh Always dancing in the corners of your smile Maybe how your tears hung from long lashes Intensifying the flecks of green in your eyes Or the way you wanted to be strong And wipe away your own sadness As you showed me you.
I think it could be that I loved you Unquestioningly, irrevocably, unconditionally Every detail of you was a delight for me Every moment was savoured as my favourite I don’t see you, but I love the time we spent As you showed me you.
