Listen to poem:
We'll stay in sacred dreams our kiss unfolds To love until death's night falls on our heart And presses hard last breath our body holds Only then will we ever be apart To wrap love's arms tightly in tender dance Allow wounds to vanish beyond our realm Light and melt candles with flaming romance And enjoy love's power to overwhelm To know peace when our hands wrap and hold firm As we walk along in life's dimmest light Unafraid on a path of no return To love without fear knowing what is right A love to promise that captures each tear A secret told and whispered to each ear 3/4/17

Wonderfully romantic poem that could not be ignored. Excellent rhymes although somewhat restricted because of the sonnet form, I loved this Frederick so it had to be rewarded, great win!
