Never have I felt someone's heart so close to my own.
Someone's pulse beat alongside mine,
Someone's smile tug at my heart and leave me smiling myself.

Never before have I let someone into my head so freely.
Let them wander in my daydreams,
Let them brush their fingers over the flowers in my mind,
Let them sway to the music of my memories.

Never have I found such beauty hidden behind such simplicity.
Such wisdom crouching behind the innocence of youth.
Such shimmering perfection waiting behind the agony of regret.

You're the first I've ever met who has put me at ease.
Who has made my words fumble over each other,
Yet cleared the chaos of my thoughts.
Who has occupied so many dreams,
Yet given me so many beautiful sleepless nights.

Who has made my hands shake,
Yet made my heart so calm.

Never again will I find someone who I can allow to make home in my heart.
Someone who will keep the place clean.
Someone who will never walk dirt into the carpet.
Someone who will never answer the door to strangers.
Someone who will keep my heart warm in the winter, and in the summer too.

Never again will I meet someone like you.
Never again will you be the same.
Never again will our hearts beat together.

Never again will your chest be warmed by love,
Because the ones you loved,
And who loved you...

You left them behind.
I know at first glance this seems quite depressing, but I assure you it's not. It's tied in with my new story (which, I must admit, I haven't even begun writing properly), and it's all about what we leave behind when we start again.

I love this! It is a bit vague but that's kind of what makes it, which I really like. It presents your point of view while keeping the idea a bit mystified.
I also really like they way you've written it. I love the structure. I love the description. I find it really original. I mean, I like how different it is to other pieces of work I've read. Very good.

I can't even comment on fantastic your techniques are. I have never met such a talented writer for our age. Your description, your vocabulary- it's amazing. Brilliant. And you have presented that flawlessly in this piece as well.
I felt really impacted me. I feel like I know what you mean. And I definitely felt emotion while reading this, which I feel is always a good thing. Very heartfelt <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let…" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)"/>.

Loved it. Fantastic.
