One last time

For this one last time I offer you forever,

amazed by the torture distance speaks.

Obsessed by the very meaning of hope,

can I fall into your arms again?

Closer each reach unable to let go,

of fearing the very fall in which I ask for.

As I come closer to your heart I know,

how much you mean to me as I am for you.

At least we could try to fall apart together,

into light where shadows dance as love.

In my arms you find peace unfathomable,

comforted by the words I never say.

In all the desires I have known in you,

my world falls away from the images left inside.

To be the tears you cry I speak loudly my soul,

yearning eternity in the fiery gates so vague.

I await our spring again in your arms I crawl,

tasting your lips is my reasoning for life.

One last time forever I beg of you to see,

my heart, my love, my need for your touch.
