A Love Only Dreamt Of

3,972 Bricks on the west side,
of the Pirtile technology building,
I sat, Stared and thought about her
Beautiful face. And As I counted,
Reminiscing of that day she looked
Deeply into my ocean blue eyes and
Said, I think I love you. A little..
I realized a virtue of life
Love is a paramount quality of life.
If I died tomorrow I would die
a happy man. You see for every
Brick I counted on that wall I thought
Of a new feature about her I loved
And It seemed that love was never
Ending because…
I Ran out of Bricks.
3,972 Bricks on that wall, and not
One is a strand short of perfection

Call Me "No Life"
Call Me "Crazy"
But, I'd Do It Again

I hope this is in a published poetry book. Because if not, it's a waste of the emotion that not many published poems can bring. This is lovely.

*sigh*... this beats somewhere close to my heart, and fills me with longing. Crazy, no, because I know that I too would do it again. ~A

This is like that quote about looking at the stars and counting out the reasons you love someone. Excellent in it's imagery, the way you made me think twice about the bricks in my wall. Excellent. ~*Beth*~

I like the concept and the way you transformed mundane blocks into a profession of love, very nicely done.
