If I could etch this very passage in time to this very instant in now , where your hand is but a reach away , and the scent of your hair can catch the breeze upon my face. Where I could punctuate your smile with the touch of my lips , and taste your skin on mine. Tender kisses , enveloped embraces , an eternity lost in your eyes. I wish I could hold on to the now , let the moon not set into dawn , or the sun not give way to the evening , you and I , here , now , in love , our love , everlasting affection. All aligned in the moment , our moment , my angel If I could stop the sand through the eye of the hourglass , and live in this dream you’ve made of our life as an “ us and we “. Where “ loving you to sleep “ is but the end of each day , and waking next to an angel as the morning calls , just another day to live to love you . For I wish I could hold on to the now , let my heart never be without yours in it’s echo , and forever is but our doorstep. If only I could hold on to the now .
