One For Love

Your sweet breath escapes you and engulfs my soul Through words spoken as though from some celestial being Warm emotion floods me, floods my very fibrous core Love I feel is not a mere four letter Word that reluctantly man takes for granted, but more a Monument to the jubilous fire you set my soul alight with Speak, I cannot, the true magnitude of shear bliss Endured by my mortal flesh. With the slightest brush Of your angelic fingers. None can know or fathom what true insurmountable beauty lies within green fields of yet discovered highland plains laden with flowers and sweet honey aroma blows within. Feeble in my attempts to profess my own meek emotions turmoil of my own past colliding with the yet to be. I destroy myself knowing such turmoil I cause in an entity none like yourself. Meager apology and material possessions offer no hint of emotion of love and remorse contained My, love, our love, will endure of that much I am sure. Open my mind My only wish, to show you things I need you to see. I have known No strength such as yours you take for granted. Times as this I've never known but with you only would I have it to spend. Forget Not the who I was, the who I am, and the who I will be. My love, our love will endure of that much I am sure Monotony & Mundane remain the same caught in this slippery pretty net we're all falling in and around our own whirlpools our upward spiral climbs too high - the higher up the further down Fly the same play the same one with the other floating always floating This sea we've created weaved in the merciless fabric of the time we all flock to certain death holding the hands of our clocks & wondering why our own bleed. double edged is the face of a sundial. With each shadow flicker anguish & joy death & life exist permanently & are lost forgotten by time held by life lost by eternity. Let's all rally hand in hand while the band plays on
