The time before

By Sophia Bishop

I know you, your scent, your face its etched into my mind,
I'd know it, remember it, recall it even after I died.

I've known you before, I realize as you whisper to me,
Of all the place, the sights, the tastes with me you long to see.

Your silent, never speaking but I know you are a work of art,
The distance, it seems to grow but from you I never wish to part.

I've known you before, I think in a peaceful dream of mine,
I've loved you before, long ago in a different time.

Your eyes, your mouth, your face and your touch,
I've loved you before I say at least I know this much.

No matter the distance no matter the time,
The heart made for you will always be mine.

You see I was made, created, I believe just for you,
See I've loved you before and I never really knew.
