The Garden of You

I step into the garden of you;
The pond like your blue eyes,
Captivating. Caring. Yours.
I see my reflection, just as your
Beautiful, blue eyes reflect your emotions.
I step into the garden of you;
Messy, tangled vines like your hair,
They hide the beauty within, like a
Secret garden that no one has the key to but
Me.
I step into the garden of you;
Buzzes and chirps like your voice,
Cockatoos sing, you sing. Kookaburras laugh, you don't.
I miss the pitches of your voice that dance as you giggle.
I miss it. I miss you.
I step into the garden of you;
The bark on the tress like your skin,
Rough, intricate, a map of your body.
I step out of the garden of you,
And into the world without you.
