If today
seems too good
to leave behind
we must always keep,
my darling,
one thing in mind.
Although we can't stop
the pendulum
and hold back time
the very nature
of such an existence
is sublime.
So I will surrender,
only those moments,
when we are apart
and keep
your vital presence
within the beat of my heart.
It's in the miracle
of your smile
and our daily gift
when knowing
how the fragility of life
can be so swift.
The darkness throws
a blanket
over every goodbye.
Yet we know
there is no limit
in how high
we can fly.
With each step I carry you
until we meet
once more
and like two caged birds
we'll be let free
to soar.
The moon draws back the curtain
to reveal
the sun.
Nature's dance
is complete.
A new cycle has begun
and to the lure
of another day
we are just made aware
that it was God who created tomorrows
for lovers
everywhere.
