Life Rewritten

Years silently passed by
As I wrote down my life
All this time defining my-
self as black on white.

Words slithering off my paper
As romance flows from my pen
Every word turning to vapour
And never showing the ecstatic sense.

When suddenly this beautiful girl
Who’d only been a memory to me,
Grabs my life in an unexpected swirl
And rewrites my life magnificently

Words are no longer darkened ink
My paper’s even no longer white
I’d say my life now sparks and blinks
Delightful colours oh so bright.

Why I deserve this wonderful love
I know my mind will never see.
But so grateful I am to God above
For having this girl right here with me.
