Invisible Lover

Invisible lover—is it such a thing?

I can only imagine, in my mind, a dream or

a belief system so strong. Perhaps reality.

The day we met, I was unsure, not sure at all.

But he said I'll wait, just come as you are.

I will be here with my arms ready to embrace you,

care for you, hold you, and carry you. I'll wait

for you.

Is this, is this him!---How can this be!

My heart flutters with ecstasy.

I smile from ear to ear and laugh with joy

Until I can laugh no more.

As I pass by strangers, they see my glow, the

sparkle in my eyes, and joy coming from my soul.

Who is this person that has captured my heart?

It's difficult to explain, but after a few seconds, I proclaim. Can't you see my invisible lover?

One day I felt the pain of living; my options were few, I called out for help, and he rescued me when no one else would.

He breathed life into me again; because I am the twinkle in his eye, a unique remnant—with flaws that I can't deny.

But to him, I was his final creation and the best one of all. He knew in his image and likeness—here is my beloved, soulmate, my ride and die!

My invisible lover, we talk every day; he watches over me, provides for me, and leads me into all truth. I'm his bride, and he is my groom.

My invisible lover, my bestie, he is my wine, my water, my rock, he is always by my side, and I'll never thirst again. I have always been his first love, and that will never change.
