We lie facing each other
Gazing into each other’s
Eyes and feeling the feeling
Grow until there is danger of
Some kind of cataclysmic event
Will you forget me you ask
Will there come a time when
I am not your first thought
And your last each day and
I am able only to reply that
Ages will pass
The mountains will crumble
And I will turn to dust and
Blow away a thousand times
Before I will forget you
You have my word and
You have my heart and
All the love in it forever
The towering clouds
And freshening breeze
Tell of the coming storm
Just so my love
Your grim face
And angry eyes
Betray your mood
You’re looking for a fight
And I’m quite happy to oblige
But while we spar
I’ll bite my lip as
I gaze up at you through
Lowered lashes
Fold my arms
Beneath my breasts
And touch the heart
That hammers almost visibly
Against my skin
Your speech will slow
And silence will engulf us
As the air between us
Heats with promise
I said that
I would fight love
I never said
That I’d fight fair
I have been
Thinking lately ~
Of the inexorable
March of days ~
While in the distance ~
On the far horizon ~
The answer to the
Final question ~
Shimmers with
Breathless promise ~
Beckoning me to
Speed my steps ~
Toward that
Elusive goal ~
But I am wiser
Than I was ~
And I will
Let my destiny
Claim me
When it will ~
And I will let
My future flow ~
Play out my
Chosen role ~
Until I
Am no more ~
