Through a Window

I see you through a window 
It's true you are my love
I stand outside as it begins to snow
From the heavens that are above

We shall lie there for eternity 
Together in eachothers arms 
Together is a certainty
We're fools for eachothers charms

Laughing as we talk
Listening to the earth
Hand in hand we walk
I love you, for what it's worth

It kills me to see you walk away
You and all your beauty
By your side is where I must stay 
I believe it is my duty

Your hair sparkles in the sun
Your eyes shine in the moon
For now I am done 
With this eternal tune

But gone is where I'll never be
Be there is what I must do
Yes, that is the job for me
To be there with you

Such a charming write..polish this jewel up a wee bit...line 5) lie line 6 & 8) each others..capitalize all the "I's" or none of the "i's". The rhyme is grouped by a series of 4 lines groups with end rhyme on the 2nd & 4th lines. So your form is Rhyme or Quatrain. Please don't be discouraged it's SO good I want it to be FULLY appreciated. Best of Luck in the new Year.
