Forever

Can you feel the pulse in your hand?  It's not too hard for you to understand.
You hold my host, the most vital organ.
     The rhythm in my chest at best thumps only for you.
I'm blessed by Misty Dawn and she equals Jimmy Matthew.
     Yes in my heart is where you belong, and if I could sing, I would sing you a song.
I confess I've searched for nothing less than a love we share for so long.
     Thirty-one years and now it's here.
It's all good.  I'm your Robin Hood and you're my Guinevere!
     I'll forever hold you dear.
Never behind or in front but beside me.  I'll forever guide you eternally.
 
     No rules using multiple syllables to express and stress my deepest desire.
Yes you light so bright my insides like a bonfire.
     If I could I would hand you an empire!
What can I say, forever and a day.  We are on our way. Never M.I.A.
     We share the same spiritual D.N.A.
From now 'til we are old and gray.  You'll forever be my favorite entree!
