Love like this.

A single footstep in the sand.

A tear spilt on the beach.

The quietness without you, and

The absence of your speech.

 

The long hot days in summer,

I've never been so alone.

I'd welcome back the thunder,

If it meant that you weren't gone.

 

The storms we'd weather together,

The ones we helped create.

You always said it better;

We didn't argue but, 'debate'

 

Love's not butterflies in stomachs

But a heart held in my hand.

You left a permanent mark,

When you knelt down in the sand.

 

A ring slipped on my finger,

I'll be forever yours.

Eternal love will linger,

You're the ghost that I adore.
