Poetry: Enlightenment

Points Of Life

I try to sleep... but for me sleep rarely comes... They say certain things mark turning

points in our lives... Things so wonderful that we grow as individuals... becoming more

aware to the amazing realization of Gods wonderful being... If you were to ask some

people what these occasions were... these so called points of life... some would say

their marriage... others would say the birth of their child... and there are so many points in

one person's life, that we sometimes don't even realize they are there... But today I

had my first point... for today I realized just how beautiful you really are... I didn't

want to take my eyes off of you... I wanted to memorize everthing about you... your smile...

your eyes... your face... and etch them into my heart... So that even when we were apart

you would fill my every dream... my every thought and my every breath... Every heartbeat

is an eternity when you are not around... You are the wind as you blow in every direction...

knowing you are there... feeling your presence... but still unable to grasp... You are the

sun, as you warm the depths of my soul... You are the moon and the stars as you light up

my nights... You are in everything I see... hear... touch... Everything that contains

beauty reminds me of you... And I can do no more than stand in awe and give thanks to God

for making someone as incredible as you... I now realize the meaning of this thing called

love... Not only is it a feeling... an emotion... it's an actual state of being... The

only words I can find to describe the way I feel... seem so inadequate... Yet however small

they seem... they are some of the most powerful words known to man... words that can

crush the strongest of men... yet give strength to some of the weakest... and I say them to

you now "I love you"
