And when our love pass’s unto the night

And when our love pass’s unto the night

 

 

How could love feel so complete as it does when two breaths breathe one breath?

 

How could the beat of your heart,

beat the same tempo as mine,

how can your breath whisper my thoughts,

how can your dreams shadow my deepest desires?

 

Hold the image of our kiss,

deep in your memory.

 

For from that memory I will live, throughout time,

everlasting deep in your love.

 

So on a shadowed moonlit night at the edge of the shores,

I will wait for you my love,

my darling.

 

I will hunger for your look,

your kiss,

your touch,

our kids looking back at our love.

 

I will be the star second from the right,

and onto the third star from the end of night.

 

The wind across your cheeks,

my kiss.

 

The sunset deep and red,

proclaims the pain of missing you.

 

The memory of you keeps me earthbound,

to your heart.

 

My love for you has broken all boundaries,

of love and pain.

 

Love…everlasting,

pain…of never holding you again.

 

So when the sun dips and the moon breaks the horizon,

know that my love for you is eternal.  

 

Know that life is but a heartbeat,

of our love.

 

Life is fleeting,

but our love is everlasting.

 

Our kiss,

your touch,

the look in your eyes,

my breath held in anticipation.

 

So carry on with your life,

and remind our children that our love for each other is eternal,

my love for you and our children,

is forever.

 

That my duty for love of you and them,

made me sacrifice our time together.
