My Lover, My Friend

Yes I was,
Trying hard not to fall;
A distant call, far from it all.

Yes I was
A lost echo with no one near,
Devoured with raging pain and helpless fear.

Could have never imagined,
That I’ll ever trust in him; 
That life would no longer be so dull and dim,
That he’ll desire me as much as I desired him.

Could have never imagined
That life would have no more hit and run,
That he’ll be warmer than the blazing sun,
Yet so wild and yearning for crazy fun.

I thought I believed in love
But no, I had no clue
He guides me softly, sweetly
To where dreams can beautifully come true.

He’s my guiding light
The poet of loving hearts
My lover, my friend
My healer in every way.
