You Are...

You Are…

By T.D.K. Alailima

You are my Eve.
You are the first woman, the woman created just for me.
You are the matching soul that when fused with my own will form a greater, stronger, more vibrant whole.
Gladly would I consume any fruit you chose to offer me, wolfing it down, hungering for more, heedless of any consequences.
I would dare to lose my place in Eden, if by doing so, I could gain a place by your side.
You are my Eve.

You are my Delilah.
You are the sultry, enchanting temptress who haunts my every waking thought.
You are the mesmerizing siren that I am inescapably drawn to no matter what.
I willingly open my heart to you, divulging my every secret, leaving myself totally vulnerable and completely at your mercy.
I blindly risk all that I am, all that I hold dear, all that I care for, just for the chance, the hope, the dream of being with you.
You are my Delilah.

You are my Persephone.
You are the lovely spring flower that brightens every day, bringing life to all of those around you.
You are the mystical goddess whose every move draws the eye of every mortal and every god.
Trapped in my dark underworld, when I gazed upon your beauty, I was filled with passion and longing, wanting nothing more than to seize you and make you my own.
Captivated by your loveliness, I long to love you and be loved by you, so that even the dreary underworld can bask in the warmth and beauty of our love.
You are my Persephone.

You are my Erato.
You are the seductive muse that fills my heart with love, my mind with inspiration and my soul with purpose.
You are the one that brings my world to life, filling it with vibrancy and energy.
You make me more open, more loving, more human, more whole.
With you, I am a better person than I have ever been, a better person than I could ever hope to be without you.
You are my Erato.

You are my Juliet.
You are the radiant beauty that beckons to me, calling me through the darkness.
You are my first love, my only true love, the woman I wish to spend the rest of my life with.
Without you, my life is a cold, bleak, lifeless wasteland.
Without you there is no point, no hope, no reason for living, no reason to be.
You are my Juliet.

You are my Yvaine.
You are the star which fell from the heavens to bring light and love into my dreary life.
You are the true love that I foolishly overlooked, not realizing your true worth.
You are she whose heart is more precious than any earthly treasure, for it holds the key to life itself.
You are the greatest treasure in all of the kingdom, the one that everyone seeks, the one that all wish to possess.
You are my Yvaine.

You are my love.
You are my one and only, my heart’s one desire, my burning passion.
You are my springtime flower, my soul’s fire, my inspiration.
You are my reason for being, for striving, for living.
You are the light of my life, my greatest treasure, my precious one.
You are my love.
