Song For Romantic Lovers

A Poem by Pablo Cole

Song For Romantic Lovers

DON'T MAKE ME OLDER
DON'T TURN AWAY
NOW YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU MY GIRL
IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT WAY

AND, YES, MAYBE NOW ONLY TRAGEDY
IS LEFT FOR OUR LIPS
IN THESE UNHAPPY TIMES
THESE YEARS -- TO MOURN!
THAT IS OUR GIFT!!!

BUT YOUR LOVELY BODY
WITH THE MYSTERY OF YOUR WOMB
WASTE AND HIPS
MAKES YOUR BEAUTIFUL LOVE FORMED
FOR ETERNITY
TO OUR HOME IN HEAVEN
TOGETHER, OUR BLISS
WHICH IS OUR FINEST NOBLEST WISH
THIS DAY

EACH DAY GROWN INTO EACH OTHER
UNTIL IN UNION WE ARE ONE
WITH OUR NEW CHILDREN
SISTERS AND BROTHERS
PROOF OF LOVE SECURELY WON

WE ARE LOVERS, TIMELESS
AND KNOW LOVE WILL SURELY WIN THE DAY
FOR MADE OF LOVE IS WHAT WE ARE
AND THE SILENT GOD SHALL KNOW OUR WAYS

SO SHALL WE SHARE OUR FOREVERS IN TRUST
WITH THE EYES OF ALL WE KNOW UPON US
YOU HAVE SAVED ME AND THIS LOVE'S ENDEAVORS
WE NEEDN'T HIDE FROM FEAR OF DEATH
TURNING US INTO DUST
FOR THERE IS NO SHAME IN THIS BEAUTIFUL TRUTH
THIS OATH
TO LOVE!!!

AND IT IS BY THIS TRUTH I SHALL ABIDE
MERRILY DOWN THE STREAM IN OUR BOAT TOGETHER
ALWAYS AND FOREVER, DEAR, I SHALL BE
THERE
WAITING
BY YOUR SIDE
