My Lover and My Friend

Looking into your eyes I see the depths of your soul
Our hearts are crying out to one another longing for one to hold
 
Passion and pleasure in a touch that we know so well
Kisses, hugs and nibbles, and my barriers seem to melt

Free to love entirely and stirring up the flames
My soul is blazing untamed and I feel not ashamed

Your skin soft upon mine and mine upon yours
Keeping these secrets locked behind closed doors

Friends in the daylight and lovers through the night
Dreaming of one another out of touch not out of sight

It is only a short distance between these two souls
Astral projection and mysteries untold

This ring upon my finger a symbol of your love
White gold and some diamonds blessed by God above

In life you were my partner, my lover and my friend
Today you linger in heaven but my love will never end

Without being pedestrian ... did not GW Bush look into Putin's eyes and see his soul ... did he not associate Putin's cross mistakenly with love for God ... beyond historic parallels, a great love poem that is so full of empathy and longing for what we have no more. Love always

No, I know it will never end. This is beautiful! Your words express through rhyme the truth of true love and that even death has not a chance against it. Michael
