Till I Met You

I was treading water
In the deepest of wells

Hunched my body
In the darkest of worlds

Mentally colder
Bottommost part of the South Pole

I was floating lost
In the most mystic forest

My mouth more silent
Then the greatest Monk

Till I met you

Now I'm higher
Then the tallest tree trunk

Standing Above
Looking down on you like an angel

My smile bright
Like the hottest of days

Filled with more delight
Then the most recent newly-wed

I'm noisey now; screaming
Boasting of our love
