The morning light revealed your shadows
every speckle and every tarnish
how immaculate your inperfections were;
I adored every single one of them

You left that morning to never return
I thought I would implode and drown
so every day I waited for a miracle
but you were as elusive as God himself.

Still, I remember that cold winter night,
when moonlight drew falling stars in your eye
your heart's desires bloomed just for me,
and how the blush of your lips kissed my cheek.

but here I lie, awake in darkness
without my lover and only tears as company
I wish we could turn back time to that night,
but only in my dreams could our love last forever.
