Your eyes haunt my dreams.
Dark orbs of live,
flooding my life,
with a reason to be.

Your face haunts my thoughts.
Radient smile,
drives out the dark,
proof that I am loved.

Your love floods my soul.
Warm rays of light,
fever passion
till I can feel your heart.

I can feel your heart,
from a world away.
Smell your hair,
feel your touch,
hear our hearts beat as one.

So a part of me,
that I fail to see,
the line that ends me,
the line that starts we.

The sun slowly sinks
another day dies
I feel it plucked from my heart.

Another day gone
I can’t get it back
another day spent without you.

One less day with you
one less smile from you
one less moment snug in your arms

The sun slowly sinks
another day dies
and with it, a piece of my soul.

A flower vendor passed me today,
as he walked by, he had this to say,
“Your beautiful lady, needs a rose,
Make sure of your love she daily knows.”

I sighed and whispered, no one could hear
“My beautiful lady is not here”,
“That she’s not with me makes my heart cry,
Inward I’m screaming, outward, I sigh.”

I bought the rose and I took it back,
Gently pressed it in a book of wax.
There it lies with all of the others,
a reminder of my heart’s druthers.

…and yet the sun still shines,
though not an brightly as your smile.
It rises every morning disheartened,
envious,
jealous.

It knows that as long as you live,
it can never be the most beautiful thing in the universe.
Even in admitting this though,
it is denying the obvious truth.
Your smile,
your beauty,
your radiance
will outlive it a thousand times over.

You and I will live out eternity together,
just the two of us,
for time unending.
As long as I have eyes to see you,
breath to call your name,
words to adorn you,
you will be the center of my Universe.

…and yet the sun still shines.

Simple Letters on a page,
Childish doodles in my mind,
Reminders of what my heart wants,
Simple shadows of what is true.

My life was drifting on the ocean,
The darkness all around fit like a glove,
Then I saw your face like a beacon,
I was saved by your undying love.

Your love is my anchor,
Your love is my rock,
Your love is the only thing that saves me.

Your love is my beacon,
Your love is my light,
It’s only through your love that I now see.

Now I have a course to follow,
I see with the light of the day,
Your love is always before me,
Lighting my world, showing the way.

Your love is my anchor,
Your love is my rock,
Your love is the only thing that saves me.

Your love is my beacon,
Your love is my light,
It’s only through your love that I now see.

It’s been many years since I first saw you,
I’ve followed your love for many a day,
You light shines brightly as ever,
Your love still shows me the way.

Your love is my anchor,
Your love is my rock,
Your love is the only thing that saves me.

Your love is my beacon,
Your love is my light,
It’s only through your love that I now see.

Winter descends on the landscape
stealing color and life
Blanketing my world with a uniform of dull and lifeless color.

A bright spot
Color in a hazy brown world.

A fountain
Shooting streams of life and light into the air.

My vision clears,
as the fountain approaches.

Light and color,
beauty and wisdom,
fuse into one
as my lover approaches.

Your love is like a priceless vase,
I treat it with care,
I put it on a pedestal,
I treasure it above all else,
because I know it is fragile,
and I would be worthless without it.

Mountains are formed,
But soon they crumble,
Glaciers will come and will go,
But out Love is as timeless as the Universe,
and as pure as the new fallen snow.

Silence in my world,
Silence in a world of cacophony,
Deafening silence as the world screams around me.

Slicing through the silence,
The most melodious sound,
A note of pure beauty.

It fills my ears,
It fills my soul,
It is the sound of my lovers voice.

My world is alive at the sound of her voice,
It creates order from chaos,
It brings beauty to the darkness.

Sing my beautiful songbird,
Let your beacon be my guide,
For without you my world is lost.
