Lovers of the Storm

Old Friends that say hello
Who share a secret memory?
Away from the road now travelled
.
For in her eyes their secret hides
Betrayed by the glint of a held back tear
Of a love that could never be
.
A love that trembled the senses
And in a stolen moment, over a bottle of wine
 The dream runs free
Dissolving the relationships of reality
.
For deep within my soul
A world with an incorruptible sky
Plays host to a lovers imagination
.
 Where the electricity from your touch
Gives birth to the storm
Your passion fuelling the Hurricane
Within me
.
And in the eye of the storm
 Time stands still, 
And my love cradles your soul
Hoping for another chance
.
And as I fall back to reality
 In the dying wind I can hear your heart
A whispered beat that calls my name
 .
But your Romeo always knew
That dreams were all we had
This Love was always just out of reach
And now I am left to dream of yesterday
Lost in a bottle of wine
.
Yet I still hear your thoughts 
Though life has abandoned me
O my sweet, sweet love
.
Your love will always be there
 And this dreamer who dreams of you
 Will always be here.
Longing for another Storm

A great title, bearing fruit with this emotional creation. '...the road now travelled,' a hint of Robert Frost? Many will resonate, that's for sure. Well done, Steven! Best wishes, Keith
