Lost in your love, your smile is almost too sweet to bear
I have to quickly close my eyes and pinch myself awake
Yet joy remains deep inside even when you're no longer there
The lingering warmth of your burning kisses my lips still taste
Lying here saited and attune to every particle in God's creation
My soul haromonises with sweet serenity of love given not taken
Floating in an ocean of exstacy, swept out by the rushing tide
Caught up in lovers desperate motions along for the ride
Drifting in your arms, aware of the slow passing of time
Daring to dream of a day all your love will truly be mine
Complacent in our union, langour overtakes and eases my mind
Swimming in the depths of your eyes, diving for pearls to find
Shivering with your loss,hugging my pillow each night your gone
Mavelling at how despite the distance, our love keeps strong
Greeting you in my dreams with arms open wide smiling deep inside
Reveling in the magic of your gentle touch as you lay by my side
Swept away by your love, adrift in your loving embrace
Fears rush past like clouds as your breath gives chase
Enriched by your valiant heart, your truths lay bare my soul
Together two halves of each others dreams becomming one whole.
