Beacon

There is a candle I hold in my heart that I keep alight.
It is a beacon that will never die out.
I hold it dear never letting it burn out.

Our distance is far.
My touch beyond your reach.

My kiss you can feel when you close your eyes at night.

Even if the Fates keep us apart,
know that flame will never be blown out.

For it is a beacon of a forever love light.
That I promise will never die out.
