Would You Still Be Mine

Would you still be mine?
Remembering me for a little time,
Transformed by the world we once owned 
To a future realm.

Would you still be mine?
Even just for a minute; if heaven sends an angel
Tonight, to take the strength that was lent.
would you still be mine?
When pleasure and joy come to the end 
And peace is the only serenity remain.
 
Would you still mine? By the divine
When the rustling winds seemed so unkind 
By the fears of worlds to be found 
And I have failed and become too frail to stir 
Emotions through a single tear.

Would you still be mine?
When time browse and blow through the mind 
Thoughts which will be hard to follow
If I step from the light into the dark 
With only blur images of sorrow.

Would you still be mine, gleaming from the star?
Even though you can’t be far
from the vacant stare seen in the storm
only angels nearby can hear the chatter
from the voice taking a new form.
