I loved you before, I loved you

She was just a dream one day. So vivid that I knew I would love her before I even knew her. Every detail of her would be perfect, the curve of her face, the softness of her smile, and even the brightness of her eyes. The tone of her voice would be soft like the summer wind. She held me with a tender embrace that no one could ever replace.

Though out my life I looked for the women I called “Bright Eyes” from my dream. I knew she was out there, somewhere, waiting for me to find. The days and years flew by and I stopped looking for her, remembering she was only a dream, a young man’s wishful fantasy.

A simple moment, an opening of a door, a twist of fate, and there she stood like so many times before. It was her, the one I had been waiting for. I knew from the moment I saw her, she was the one from my dream. I tried to speak but the words would not come, all I could do is stand there in disbelief.

Time moved on and so did we, maybe we were not meant to be. I will remember that fateful day of our first kiss. Our short lived lives were full of bliss. The laughter, the smiles, and even the tears will never be replaced by the passing years.

So today I will close my eyes, try not to cry, make a wish and say goodbye. Someday I hope to meet again, because….I loved you before, I loved you.
