Always...

Always…

A summer’s day brings thoughts of you,
Drifting by on the subtle breeze.
Memories made, and futures determined,
Your presence here leaves me at ease.
The songbird sings a familiar tune,
His notes landing softly on my ear.
A song of summer and new adventures,
Which I dream of as you draw near.

Your protective embrace renders me weak,
And I could lose myself in your hazel eyes.
Always watching, always questioning,
Always seeing past other’s lies.
Your waning smile brightens the room,
Bringing joy to all those around you.
You have a talent…a special gift,
That surprises people anew.

Our time together is now shortened,
Days spent together come to an end.
Separate paths must be taken,
Only the Fates know where we are sent.
Now Temptation strays onto the path,
Appealing to our wants and desires.
Be it ambition or things forbidden,
My need for you becomes dire.

Things are said about waiting, sometimes,
And how you want my happiness.
But how little you comprehend of me,
For without you, I’d be in an abyss.
So speak no more of time wasted,
Or of straying far from me.
I want to wait here for you,
To come back from beyond the sea.
