Mesmerizing is how I would describe
Falling unequivocally under your spell
But retrospectively, how could it be
Otherwise – I will explain.
A vision of the one for me
Was in my head, how she would be
As time marched on irretrievably
And then and then, she stood before me.
How could I not fall hopelessly in love
She was my Mona Lisa come to life
Unerring image, dominant in dreams
The stars aligned, the God of Love loved me.
I wallowed in, drank copiously of this brew
My self-esteem gained stratospheric heights
My goddess strode imperiously by my side
Was it not as it should be – my due.
Grandiloquent endeavors filled my brain
I was god-like and she was by my side
Imperiously I viewed all with disdain
Then she was gone – despair unending void.
Dejected, downcast, mewling here I sit
Digesting, disassembling all that passed
And feeling sorry for myself, I do admit
Love pressed me to its bosom then out cast.
