When I first looked into your eyes
I thought not of me but of you
I lived for you
I loved for you
Your beauty shone and lit
Every aspect of my soul
We spoke not with our tongues
But with our hearts
And we aknowledged
And understood
And loved
And we were scared
The kiss between us
Arose such a feeling of wonder
Such an embrace as yours
I had never known
Such intimacy I had never hoped for
It was only you
In all the universe
It was only us
As one
And the wings upon which we flew
Rose us higher
And we were above all the pain
And so we loved
And then we fell
Down, down, down together
We shielded our creation
From him
I bled for him, for you, for us
And the moment your sweet face hit the ground
I knew not what I was doing, how I could breathe
For it took all the strength I had left
To do as you asked
And save our son
And so with this I loved you
I had lived for you
I had bled for you
I had died for you, for us
And so through Heaven
And through Hell
I had loved you
I loved you


Okay, there it was, my first attempt at poetry. I know: ick. Anyway, if you haven't figured it out yet, it's from Lily's point of view, about James. I tried to base the feeling on a love I have known, and lost. Please don't be too mean in the reviews! ^.^
