The Best Of You

in the poetry of your smile
i see a glimpse of the infinite
and i just want to look at you
and see the way you're looking at me
then i'll close my eyes as you walk away
and though you're not coming back
i will not hurt... not yet,
cos you gave me the best of you.
i'll always remember what i saw
in your eyes when you looked at me
i'll remember the magic of that first kiss
and the sweet fragrance of you
i'll remember because you touched
the deepest chords within my heart
and provoked in me something so divine
and i'll remember that deep stirring within
as i looked deeply into your eyes
and the way you laughed
until your eyes sparkled like stars
i'll remember because you left
your heartprint on mine...
and you gave me the very best
all the best of you...
