Eyes closed unto you.

I will be everlasting
in your eloquence of kisses-
how we reminisce
love's un-denying wind
through embraces heights can't climb.

That summer, the world was impassive,
while we explored courageous
cities, and gave everything
for that moon of trust.

Winter comes back,
yet I am only welcomed
by your sacrifice of return
and the warmth you breathe.....
articulating
a single note of emotion
that flutters, opens
into a light like
no other promise.

Can you tell our angels
to bring us closer?
Impossible.

And like precious days
we'll keep blossoming,
never a moment
where we will stray
from that first passion,
where I learned
the vow of our destiny.

Don't open your eyes-
for our beauty cannot be seen
as bright as we wish,
but it will shine more
in our souls the more we keep
caressing what we believe in;
see that I am loving you
deeper than time itself.
