For Paul

There's a single moment everyday When the sun begins to fade That I gaze beyond the horizon In search of a love forbade Your handsome face I cannot touch Your gentle voice I cannot hear But I know that you are with me My heart has brought you here Although it is only for an instant This love cannot be disavowed Pleasure, passion and contentment All to me, you have endowed I took a vow to love only one And faithful I shall be 'cept within this timeless moment When you are here with me There's a single moment everyday When the sun begins to fall That I gaze beyond the horizon And unite with a man named Paul If only the years had not progressed And taken from me, my innocence I'd soar again like I once did Into the arms of my beloved Prince But alas reality has denied me flight An angel without wings Sitting grounded on the shores Gazing outward, my lonely heart sings In this life I have but one wish And selfish it may be Give my lover golden wings And fly him here to me Let me hold him in my arms Feel his breath upon my skin Taste the passion that I desire Prove the love I feel for him Then when my life is over And the Guf contains my soul I will have gained a priceless gift A memory to behold...
