Before I met you,
There was the sun,
Tearing the darkness apart
With its razor
Of light
And bleeding
The sky
And the space
With bright warm colours,
Awakening the day
From its murky sleep
And dyeing,
Slowly,
The small dew pearls
That decorate,
Subtly,
The fragile petals
Asleep in the fields…
Before I met you
I already existed,
For sure,
And my eyes
Had already seen the world
Around me,
But not the way
They see it now…
Before I met you
I was water,
But not the sea,
I was light,
But not the sun,
I was shade,
But not the night,
I was sound,
But not the music,
I was as fragile as glass…
But then
I became as strong as diamond…
