15 Years

For 15 years I have loved you
It is beyond a kiss
It is beyond a hug
It is beyond our friendship

You will find my love
In the lyric you hear
In the sunlight that warms you
In the food you make
I am the life you have touched
I am the love you have lost

For 15 years I have loved you 
And I will love you for a lifetime more

The wait

I must wait, I wait
For the kiss of a lifetime
I must wait, I wait

What if

What if
We were cut from the same cloth
We were made from the same star
We were forged in the same fire
We were sprouted from the same root

What if
We loved with the same heart
We spoke with the same intention
We kissed with the same desire
We cuddled with the same warmth

What if 
We were one

A moment with you

The moments with you 
Fill my heart with joy
The moments with you
Linger like a soft fabric

The moments with you
Leave me spellbound and dosed
The moments with you
Makes the next much more meaningful

I wish these moments
Could fill our lives
This is not to say
There's anything wrong now

I just know
Fruit would taste sweeter
Music would ring clearer
The fire in our homes hearth
Would burn for us forever

A moment with you
Is my wish

A Birthday Gift

I'll wait
Because you mean so much
I'll wait
Because that's what a bestfriend does

I'll wait
Because that's what you want
I'll wait
Because you need me to

Sometimes I get frustrated 
But then you lead the way
Like when the sunlight breaks through
On a cloudy day

A lifetime of patience
Just for you
A box with your name
A birthday gift

Open my gift
Awaiting inside
Is my infinite passion
My devoted soul,
Our friendship

It's not pretend

You said let's pretend.
You are my light, love, and soul.
I am always yours.

For a moment

For a moment I dreamt you were mine
You held me close, and tight
You whispered softly in my ear
We held hands and each other hearts

For a moment I thought you could be mine
We shared desires and dreams
We indulged in fantasies and flirting
We slid into "I miss and want to kiss you"

For a moment I thought you were mine
And then reality crept in, slowly and then all at once
Like the first ray of light at dawn, suddenly it was here
And the dream ended and I awoke
And I remembered you weren't mine

Spilled Wine

Laughter and love
Light hearted yet serious
A touch and a smile 
Oops a little wine spilled

A rush and an experience
Here, take a bite
The music all around us
And yet we're alone

Laughter and love
Lighthearted yet serious
We walk hand in hand
A story untold

I'll love you forever
And ever and ever
Time stands still for us and
Oops a little wine spilled

The sunset

Do you think of me
When you see the sun setting
Me, you, together

Only one heart will break

Only one heart will break
And I know it will be mine
I know because, it's you

Only one heart will break
I will offer you mine
With trepidation and love
Because, it's you

Only one heart will break 
And it's worth the risk
I will forgive because, it's you
