A Distant Memory Poem by branham kahongo

I seem to recall I time long ago, a time where the gift of your presence was not with me. A time when I was not fortunate enough to even glance at you. A time when I lack happiness and awareness of myself. A time where I knew not of your smile or gentleness. A time where time would not stand still because of your starlit eyes. A time when my mind was not clear from the lack of your smile. I time where I was incomplete because you weren't there. That time seems like a nightmare of the worst kind. Because without your smile I know no joy. Without your presence, my mind would be with no clarity. For with you, my being is more than enhanced, it is improved. You have brought joy, to my otherwise miserable life. Like an angle, you have brought light in my dark tunnel. Your eyes, a single glance has found my soul, brought peace and intelligence back to me. I could spend an eternity and still be incapable of describing how much you mean to me for you are priceless. To be loved is the greatest and only gift I can ask for. I have nothing to offer cept my never-ending love and promise to always to cherish you more than anything else.
