To Be With You

Oh, Dear Lord,
If I could just have
one more hour
in the arms of the 
one I so
 do love,
To taste those
sweet lips,
as heaven above
In ecstatic rapture
In so very deep love,
To touch her face,
touch her supple limbs
To lay me down
with the wonder
that only God gives,
To return to a day
when the sun shined 
so much brighter
To run my fingers
through her hair,
To sweeten my desire,
Where close is never
close enough
And time is far too fleeting,
To celebrate the magic day
Of our destined meeting...
There are no words,
There are no deeds,
That could ever truly express
The unknown of quality
Of the our bond,
So different from the rest,
I run my fingers through 
your hair,
My heart just swells
with joy
I pull you ever closer
to me,
In a love that's
not a ploy
I may lose you tomorrow,
The future I can not see,
But you are mine at this moment
And that is ecstascy.
