Beneath the Stars

Its hard to understand when the hearts faith is absent It's Difficult to view when there is no will to see This is a feeling beyond my understanding, yet I know I need you My heart shivers at the thought that u aren't for me Your beautiful smile glows light unto my world, where are you Still the days pass and I not fade from you, would it, can it be fate You can only do so much and then comes God He knows what I feel for you, still you wonder of my integrity Is not the color of the sky blue, does it not shift towards black as the sun sets to bed Feel my spirit that shakes as you near, I think I love you Your name is on my mind and your image in my heart Still I wonder if and when I will see you again, face to face This feeling I just can't shake and I ask why? I only want to know if I too hold a piece in your heart if my image hangs too on your line of hope All isn't lost, if faith is lost but not forgotten I dream of holding you, Of keeping you close to my heart Perhaps fill my other empty half To kiss you beneath the aging stars that have stood witness to history and it's making In hopes the moonlight will caress our bodies as we create love to it's highest point Making love to you, for in my eyes you are the woman I want to grow old next to My eyes are for no other except you, a completion of spirit and mind Let then my soul dream for that is free and know that in my heart I am in love with you Pause this world and hold my hand, open your heart to me beneath these skies while they weep over this falling world where men stand cheap Honor is lost and so is love I pen to you and for you amongst fallen hopes, and broken dreams lost long ago My heart aches, still I walk in joy because I have you in my life Good night then my love, dream as I will Beneath the stars For you Gloria
