I am yours in memory And I am willfully bound inside Every kiss that you bestow Upon the top of my head, nestled into my hair On the sides of my face, and my forehead Pressed to the back of my hand, and placed in my heart, with all of your love
I feel a fool and I do not care I would taste each day in a bite, as long as it tastes of you This is a dream and you are my sleep You give me rest and helpfulness It swells in my chest And bubbles out of my mouth Like a brook swelling in Spring
**** these hands that they would ever let you go Curse these eyes if they would ever look away I cling to you like the edge of a cliff I look to you like the sun on the horizon
Would the birds let me join their song in the quiet of the sun rising in the morning to scatter darkness and dew alike from the skirts of the earth
Would the stars give me but two twinkles, each for an eye so that when I look at you, you can see the lightness of my heart dripping out my eyes
Would the moon bathe me in dreams and fill your head with all the beautiful thoughts of you I hold in my heart
Would you love me for every day that I love you because then we will never run out, like water roaring over the falls to chase the rocks down the stream
I see you in the world, and I hope you can find me in your heart
