Once, I saw a snowflake fall in June
Landing on a sprouting white daisy.
And oh, how lovely it truly was living amongst
What some said was a tomb.
The way it defied logic in its presence
Kept me in a warmth that the approaching summer envied.
That's why I look at the woman I love as a goddess.
I guess you can say some never thought we could be.
We happened upon one another when
Neither of us thought happiness was possible.
I lived life through a storm
That threw me back and forth
And despite it being of normalcy
The wind exacerbated my wounds.
I thought happiness was supposed to be dangerous.
I thought love was not love
Unless every part of your heart, soul and spirit felt incomplete.
Every night, I cried myself to sleep
Not knowing what I was missing.
When I gave my eyes to everyone
And let their opinion be prophecy,
she showed me how to see, again.
When her and I met,
I swore I would wake up soon.
Because it felt surreal. I still feel like I'm dreaming.
She proved life didn't have to be torment.
She brought satisfaction from a smile
And in her touch, I experienced no doom.
When she told me her name for the first time
I realized
sometimes snowflakes can fall in June.
She's truly a blessing.
