I saw you...

Image - Emmanuelle Beart in "La Belle Noiseuse"
Verse by Colin Lascale
I saw you
and saw in you
the spark missing from my life.
I touched you
and you turned and turned to show your entire universe
of love, pain, hurt and hope.
I asked you
and you gave and gave profusely
of your creativity and confusion.
I joined
and joined my imagination
to your expression
and love took wings
to skies untouched
to lands unknown
to spirits unseen
into a bliss of its own.

  1. It looks like the verse is inspired by the movie La Belle Noiseuse. Or is it independently inspired?

  2. The connection if any is concealed in my subconscious. As far as I remember, when I wrote this I had not thought about the movie. But now that it has been mentioned, I can't rule out the possibility.

  3. I must admit that Emmanuelle's combination of beauty and nonchalance is heady!
