Nov 2011
I once swam within your sweet almond eyes
And while we floated the stars burned to ice
Together we awaited our demise
The final notes were of our own device

But the Sun still shone when I closed your eyes
Upon lilies I laid your head to rest
The sand not yet spent, to us the glass lied
And each stolen moment lives in my breast

I once bathed in the sun upon crystal shores
With your gaze on my back, I lost my fear
Time's petals adorn us, still I want more
To live in all the colours of her tears.
To a woman I love and can love no more.
