Hour Glass

rose pedals blowing in the wind 
i wander if i will ever see you again
time pouring sand in the hour glass
i need your loving and i need it fast

infinite correlation of our hearts intertwine
your heart making love to mine
i vaporize into the dark but you still sense me there
your deep blue eyes give off a fiery glare

in my amazement you continue to stare 
i have vanished into midair 
without your love i am in great despair
i reappear and see you standing there

you rush to me without a care
wrap your arms around me ever so tight
holding me close not wanting me to disappear into the night
my heart embraces your heart with all its might

the room closes in on us extra tight
my heart stops beating for a while 
then i look up and see your smile
i panic no more you relive my fears 

i feel your face next to mine and your eyes tear 
as if to say you will never leave and for me not to go away
on my knees i bow down and pray 
to whoever may hear what i say 
do not take her love away 

i cry upon your leg and inside my heart pleads and beg
please never relinquish this fire inside 
without you i have already died
as you hold my hand i realize that the hour glass has poured out all the sand
