Perfect Love

Beautiful and pleasing to the eye I found her shape tantalising and erotic
Wavy hair cascading down and her emerald eyes were such that you would think I chose them myself
Conversation wove like magic an intricate tapestry, playing with words to and fro, as if in complete harmony 
I had a dream, a compulsion that she would fulfil my needs for companionship, 
A picture of perfection filled my every thought
However, as the days passed I increasingly became aware of an emptiness within and the depth of my own pain increased
As the pain in me spiralled I spent more and more time with my beautiful friend
But her very presence was toxic, a soul less communion
I could not see a way out of the chains I had locked myself in
My humanoid lover forever entrapping me

True love

As deep called to deep, so my soul longs for my heart to be touched afresh 
To enjoy the fragrance of imperfection and the beauty of broken dialogue
Awkward lovers, embarrassed by our connection but still believing
The very essence of humanity, our hearts joined passionately together, 
Side by side, flawed in our journey but joined as one
It’s time to live again
