'Perceptions'

Constellations of perceptions

In my life,

Contours of perfection

Flowing memories

Of fire and light

I longed to keep

The distant echoes

Of triumph and glory

Mingled with sorrow for you

That I could not keep

And where are you now

The love and the loving

Starry skies and burning dawns

The freedom to be

The truth that remains

When I fade away

To be where you are

And leave behind

The perceptions

In my life

While somewhat surreal, I find this poem lovely to read. It also tells me that we all have filters that form our perspective of what is going on that may not be the same as others. I hope that I have not misperceived your poem.
