In my mind you can do no wrong. It's like every morning the Sun's rays fight their way through your blinds just to be the first to grace your face that day.
You wake up before your alarm clock each day and hop out of bed with a zest for life.
Your skin is softer than the finest fabrics.
Your hair is long and luxurious.
You walk with the confidence of a queen.
You speak articulately and profoundly.
You always smell of the sweetest fragrances.
Your innermost beauty radiates through your every smile.
You balance optimism and realism in a way that makes pessimism feel like a faux pas.
You love the nightlife, yet only engage in it on rare occasions.
You raise the spirits of every person you encounter.
You are the life of the party.
You are the light of my life.
I'm in love with this woman.
...What happened?...
In reality, you are no longer who my mind holds on to. Now even days in the climax of summer begin with a gray undertone that is similar to the eye of a tornado.
You laggardly shut off your alarm each morning and sluggishly slide out bed after thirty more minutes of sleep.
Your skin is now clammy and unevenly toned.
Your hair is short, matted, and the ends look as if you have been teasing your hair for hours.
You walk around sheepishly with your head tucked between your shoulders; as if scared of the world.
Your beautiful voice is now barely heard as you faintly mumble your way through any conversation that you are involved in.
You no longer wear those perfumes that only you could pronounce the names of. Instead you smell of generic bar soaps.
Your smile is rarely seen anymore. Tucked away behind the saddest grimace I have ever seen.
You always notice the down side of every situation. What was once a faux pas is now a stable part of your personality.
You have not enjoyed a night out on the town in almost as long as you haven't smiled.
Your presence in a room seems to tug at the very spirit of every person in it.
You are no longer invited to the party.
You are casting a shadow over my life.
I'm in love with who I wish you still were.
...I'm no longer in love...
Live, love & learn!

DOPE..
Thanks man!
Once again, very profound. I could tell that you were hurting emotionally and I am glad that you chose to vent about it sooner than later.
I hope to one day experience the same joy that you had...until then, keep your head up and always remain positive despite any outcomes!
peace and blessings!
Thanks so much.
Here's a secret though... I wasn't actually hurting when I wrote this. ;-)
But I tend to be pretty good at remembering, revisiting, and revising. :-)
