Till the Day I Die

In mere, split moments two souls intertwine, It is a wonder I could ever possibly call you mine Yet here you are, an enchanted dream, Life has its twists—things are seldom what they seem! I could never ask for anything more, I am speechless—I love you to the core At times I contemplate so stiff and still, Wondering if this heaven that is you is actually real You wrapped your tendrils around my heart, Your life, your form, is a masterpiece in itself, an art I, the childish, fearful youth, somehow let you in, And now all of my fears have left from within Forgetting all past miseries and tearful laments, I have grown so much in a matter of moments How I am grateful for such a precious soul, Without you I am empty but now I am whole You cradled my life in a passion so true, I opened a door and the breeze coming in was you The stars of night or the brilliant sunrise, Compare not to your bedazzling eyes They have seen so much sorrow and endured so much pain, I wish I could erase all of the bad memories from your brain But I am merely a girl and only a fortunate few, Have the opportunity to know of the real you And if I can, you know I would Take all of your sorrows away—if only I could. . . I would lift you far above the mountains on high, Paint you on every canvas—on every sky I would show the world below and above, So everyone could have a taste of your precious love I never want us to say goodbye… I promise I will love you till the day I die -dedicated to Slender Man- ;) January 5, 2013
