She came into my life with a strength that I didn’t expect,
Like the sun shining bright on a summer day, her warmth and power over me was unexpected.

In the early morning, she revealed only part of her beauty as she stretched over the horizon,
Glimmers of love and compassion drawn through life’s complexities like light reaching through early morning trees.

She revealed almost nothing of herself as her brightness masked all that she was,
Shining into your day with life giving energy that furnished all that you needed to survive.

As she breached the horizon in full view, her power was intoxicating and sometimes blinding,
She spoke in a language you could not translate but you fully understood.

As her energy touched you, surrounded you, controlled you, her warmth sparked a fire deep in your soul,
Beauty, intelligence, infatuation, communication, love all surfaced to a rapid boil.

As her altitude increased, her beauty drew out words, feelings, compassion, emotion as had never been surfaced before,
In turn, a engulfing fire both sparks and consumed your very being.

Her beauty, emotion and intelligence devoured you,
You were now part of the never-ending inferno that is the sun, that is her love.

You will burn for eternity and her love will last forever,
All hold an expectation of a distant day where you both extinguish as a summer day ends in sunset.

Abruptly, with the intensity of the sunrise, a cosmic event releases the combined energy in a devastating end,
Shattering her, you and everything previously powered by your combined energy.

Fire spreads through what was once your combined love,
Darkness, death, and destruction remain of what once was the result of the suns reach.

The promise of a spectacular sunset no longer remains,
All that once was is now gone, consumed by the devastating end.
