Mon amour

Je t’aime,

Mon amour, presque parfait,

Since dancing below a canopy of ever-changing branches,

With the free flying embers of a campfire,

And myself hallucinating with happiness,

Over frozen ground

In the night’s darkest hours

My hands on your body

And in your hair

Your eyes reaching out

Demanding attention,

Willingly or otherwise.

 

You hypnotize me,

I can’t bear to look away.

And it is so strange,

To feel so at one,

I could’ve known you forever

My fleeting love,

My disappearing friend,

My beautiful creature.

 

You are not of this time,

Not of this world.

You surprise me

And teach me

And excite me

Mon amour,

Mon amour,

I could’ve known you forever,

I will love you forever.
