My Forever Love



Mmmmm, the taste of sweetness hanging in the air;
silk woven beautifully, the texture of your hair.
Kisses placed softly, from forehead to cheek;
pleasure through peace, no pain here to seek.

I ask for you to follow, you come so I can lead;
down the road we travel, careless warnings not to heed.
Duality in mortality, you and I here alone;
life fragile as glass; transparent, all is shown.

Come now to bed, I made it just for you;
and when you never wake, it will be as someone new.
Sleep now with finality, dream, should you still be able;
life turned to memory, wishes turned to fable.

Pierced, you were struck, but not by cupids arrow;
gentle was my touch, I was ever so careful.
Faint as a whisper, shallow breathes are released;
soon rigor sets in, all motion has ceased.

Firmness in your hands, this forever lasting grasp;
bowed head as I speak, praying hands locked in clasp.
“As you are, you shall remain, body never again to age.
Another name in this book, forgotten, until I turn the page.”
