Oh, someΒ Β times I feel
that my heart will explode.
Oh, my tongue has failed me
to tell of the bright and lovely
creature you are
that you are the very flower of creation
and of my deep love for you.
Oh, more than my heart can endure
without you by my side.
Oh, darkness comes
and my last thoughts before I sleep
are thoughts of you.
You are an angel that haunts my dreams
with your lovely angelic form and sacred soul
till the morning light.
Oh, thoughts of your face
are my first awareness
when my eyes flutter open.
Oh, you are the other
half of my soul
and without you I can never be whole.
Only your heart can light
the surrounding darkness.
The darkness of this cruel and crass world.
Oh, before you
I walked in an eternal dark forest
with no light for my way.
and did stumble along a dark path
I knew not where it would lead.
But oh, the light of my love for you
that shone in my heart
when I first saw your face
has shown me the way.
Oh, all the beauty and hope
of God's creation is within you.
Oh, the creator took all the love within his heart
and made you perfect in form and symmetry
and I am hopelessly entranced by you
and so I shall remain
throughout all the day of eternity.
