Amaranthine love

Neilton

Seems like we were lovers in another

life 

An amaranthine love impossible to

find 

Your dazzling eyes were like 

sunshine 

 When my fears came you held me 

tight 

You squeezed my hand and said it's

alright 

You wiped my tears and whispered at night:

"I know it's arduous but you're strong so fight!"

" In every struggle and pain I'll be by 

your side"

"I shall wait till you're ready to call you

my wife"

You caressed my cheek and wished me

goodnight 

If there were thoughts of your words being lies

You showed with actions of pure

delight 

You read my poems with the proudest smile 

You supported my crazy goals every 

time

You loved my cats and everything that was mine 

I cried and you wiped my tears

 away

You held my heart so careful as not to 

break

When dark thoughts conquered my 

brain 

You tried your best to get me out of that place 

You knew my past experiences,every detail

You understood my anger and why I wished to isolate 

You never judged my looks you thought I was like a fairy 

You knew my worries and how to 

commiserate 

 We went to church every

 Sunday 

You knew exactly my beliefs , why I'm 

afraid 

So you said :"God exists,you must have faith"

Your faithful words and laugh erased my pain 

The only person I never wanted to give 

away 

We worked as a team and we bonded 

apace

We found people's opinions funny in every way 

We knew that only together we will

age 

As for our adventures you knew how to appreciate 

Our moments in green valleys always 

Devine

Animals and nature hiking left us 

mesmerized 

We laughed for hours under the starry

sky 

We run for fun and never rushed our 

life

We talked and fought yet we always aligned

Our amaranthine love was one of a 

kind 

"Elusive and treasured"in people's 

mind

                I'm stuck on amarathine - saying 'good write' but not knowing what amaranthine is! lol.

                • Neilton

                  Haha! I get it I had no idea ,too! I wanted to write something about a timeless love that never fades and lasts forever ! But I wanted something you know poetic and something better than timeless .So I looked it up and I found amaranthine which has 3 meanings!
                  1) amaranth flower:an imaginary flower that never fades ,never withers .There is a actually a flower called amaranthus and it lasts for ages even if you cut it !!
                  2)it's a colour like dark reddish purple
                  3) and you can you use for love like everlasting unfading loveliness
                  I found this word very very interesting because it comes from where I come from! In Greece we say amarantos for something that never withers!

                  • orchidee
