A Valentine love - poem - - revised.

Sunmmer Landscape by Steve Slimm

But For You.

My days would become
One shade darker,
The sun would be blue,
And, but for you
My eyes would not smile
When the raindrops
Of hurt leave puddles
Around my heart,
Which, but for you would
Deluge my soul.

The light of my life
You have become.
But for you my nights
Would be lonely
As graves, your saving
My 'sanity'
Brought normality.
Love never appeared,
Nor would, but for you.
