"Escape"
The sun shines
as dawn breaks
former night recedes
from view
Its faded promises
and dark secrets
burned away
in glorious light
You hold forever
in the palm
of your hand
Feeling your
warmth against me
leaves me with an aching
deep inside
A beautiful longing I never knew existed
Hold me close now
and whisper your dreams
envelop me in your perfect arms
and never let me fall
Never let me go
My darling, my beloved
All the stars in the night sky
that streak and sparkle
across heaven's face
They all pale beside you
And the devotion that I feel
what we share between us
will be our sweet escape
As the last remaining shards of light
at sunset illuminate you
and the joy in your heart
can be heard
in quiet song
Now and forever
yesterday and today
and long into tomorrow
I will love you with everything I am
and everything I ever hope to be.
