Ability (Version #2)

We were freshly out of school

A little over a year

And you headed back home

I dropped you off at the airport

You caught the evening flight out of JFK

I said goodbye to your baby browns

And kissed your rose lips

Nobody inspires me like you had

Nobody captivates me like you had

Nobody captures my heart like you had

There is no one on this earth

That encompassed what you were

To me

Your touch was sensory overload of the majestic sense

Your kiss sent an electric charge down my spine

Your voice was a symphony to my ears

Your kindness was legendary

Your warmth was generous

Your affection was eternal

Your love was boundless

Your courage was heroic

Your sympathy was epic

Your grace was poetic

I no longer have the ability to love

You took my ability to the bottom of the sea that day

My heart died with you

On Flight 111, September 2, 1998
