Forever In Your Eyes

F ervent emotions quietly flow through my contented heart
O ver the love I feel when watching you in peaceful sleep.
R esplendent reveries of you, I lovingly recall from our start.
E nchanting was the moment we first met; a memory to keep.
V elvet nights we spent together, gazing at the stars above.
E ach one seemed to whisper, "You fit like a hand in a glove."
R adiant was their illumination as we realized,  'this is love.'

I mpassioned by desire, I have been smitten by your charms.
N akedly bared is my heart when you hold me in your arms.

Y ielding is my soul, for you captured me with a glance.
O ne look from your sultry eyes and I was mesmerized.
U nited in matrimony, we share the rhythm of love's dance.
R omance as genuine as ours is to be treasured and prized.

E ager am I, my darling, to wake you with my sweetest kisses.
Y et, I hesitate to rouse you if you are dreaming of loving me.
E nticed by my hunger for you; what sensual temptation this is.
S tarry-eyed when you wake,  is the look I'll always long to see.
