One Day One Wish One Poem Collaboration

Let us escape our space and time
Let mine go forward and yours unwind
And let us meet on even plain
Just for a day each others claim
Before the dawn we both awake
Aware we only have this date
To you I give what I promised death
From earthly being all I have left
The last act of love given this breath
A gift for your existence and poetrys depth

The sweet magic you spent
in shed tears
When your eyes were filled
with starlight
Found ther was no room
for surprise
As we harnessed the hours
in delight

Take me through the wind
swept storm
In the maddness that romance
entrance
In your arms so deliciously warm
Is where love hysterically dances

I'll come to you man of the maze
Through the night hours hiding 
the sun
when the sunset wraps up 
your days
We'll be wasted and wild
but we'll be one

And love counts no more
the years
