Once I was Loved


What a wonderful day,
The sky a beautiful azure
Not a cloud on the horizon
An ocean breeze ruffled my hair
My rocker the perfect place to relax
To remember, to relive, to feel my heart come alive once more

My eyes close
The memories come flooding in
There you are in front of me
Your beautiful blue eyes twinkling
That lopsided smile
that always made my heart beat so fast.

Seeing once more the golden Palace
Where first we met
Slowly grew to know each other
The deed of good intentions
Twisted into something dirty; deceitful
Friendships lost and bitterness screamed
No room was safe from the vitriolic tongue of the ex lover

Like the phoenix
rising from the embers
Of pain, loss and hatred
Our Love blossomed
Shakily at first,
So much baggage we carried between us
Dragging us down mistrust and lies abounded

Barriers finally broken down
And hearts united in a love so sweet
A token of love given
An island of incredible beauty
A home built together
A retreat from the real world

Japanese garden of tranquillity
Designed by your Love,
Laboured on by both of us
Walks along a beach
Swims in the lagoon
Fed by waterfall so fresh and pure

Plans for our future made
Dinners for two, carefully planned
Each in turn pouring for days through
Cookbooks, recipes found
Some familiar and loved
Some exotic, steps beyond
our comfort zones
Using only the best ingredients
Venturing into Ethnic food shops
Growing so brave, we laughed like
On an adventure

Candles by the dozen adorned the dining Room, our bedroom, the veranda where we frolicked in the huge Jacuzzi
Aromas of vanilla, Ylang ylang
and Gardenia wafted
Around us mesmerizing us
A wood fire flickering dancing
Long sensual love making
Gifts of love given and treasured
Oh the Gods were cruel, we were such innocents

Then like a viper
The illness struck me
At the airport I caused a stir
Collapsing in the boarding lounge
So close we came so close,
My ticket clutched in my hand.
I was flying to you
Beginning our new life
On that fateful day however,
the Gods Laughed upon high
Ripping you from me
destroying our dream

Hovering between life and death
Desperately trying to reach out to you
You were fading no longer seen
Someone thinking they knew best
Destroyed what contact we had

Home at last six months in a coma
A further 12 months
Spent in hospital in Rehabilitation
having to learn who I was all over again..
Learning to walk
To do the simplest of tasks
I sought you out desperately
Reaching out to our friends
Asking, pleading for news of you
Still you could not be found

Finally you were there
I reached out with words of love
In return I was blasted,
Knocked down and verbally kicked
You were so cold so distant
Your words scruel gone were your loving words
Now there were onlybitter tongue lashings
Insults so vile Rage, abuse were all that remained

My heart shattered,
The Chatelaine of Lemuria died
In her place the cold hearted
Domme bitch rose
Out of the ashes of Lemuria
Stalking With whip and knife,
My victims were well chosen
The more they begged
Me not to leave them
The more I loathed them,
Loathed the weakness that allowed them to put up with public humiliation

Friend’s pleas were not heeded
Still I ran activetly seeking
The path towards oblivion
The path to the Abyss
Where there was no pain only blackness

A man kind, gentle and decent
Crossed my path,
He saw beneath the charade,
He saw the broken woman
This kind man, this quietly spoken man
A man to outward appearances so weak yet in reality a man of determination and steel
Showed her the way to redemption
Slowly the pain lessened
My heat began to mend
My salvation I thought I had gained

The gods had other plans
A woman fighting for her man
A woman trying to once again
Have his love Came to me,
Her pain apparent, she begged
For one more chance
She had made mistakes,
Taken him for granted
Pleading she promised to be good
Be once more the woman he married

She struck a deal...
let him come home to her
just for 3 months..
If at the end of that time
he still wanted his freedom
Se would no longer fight

For the first time in so long
she thought of others
Their happiness
To be kind I was cruel
I ripped his heart out and left it laying on the ground
Sending him back to her waiting arms

I am alone, but that is not so bad
Fragile still and wary
Taking time to finally grow to
Know the real me

I was once loved by two wonderful men
To experience a gift so rare
Hoping one day we will be friends
Holding out my hand,
Hoping one day they will take it
An ironic smile curves my lips realising I did too good a job of sending them away
for them ever to return

I was once loved
In my memories I still am
Living still in Lemuria
Walking hand in hand in my garden of tranquility
Young and beautiful if only in their eyes

I sit here on the verandah of my home
Siren’s Song 'dmy eyes filled with tears
No do not feel sad for me,
They are tears of joy
Tears of fond memories
For I know I was blessed, truly blessed
As so few people are in this life
So I sit here Remembering …
Once I loved two wonderful men
A man who loved me in return
It does not matter
IF it only lasted for 11 months
Eleven months is a life time to remember
The love of my life, my Soul Mate, a wild tempestuous love and a quiet gentle love
no less wonderful in its simplicity
