Love Poem: For You

For You

As I lay under these stars,
So many thoughts race through my mind.
You see I have traveled long and far,
At times loved ones left far behind.
Though they were always with me in thought,
I can never get back all I have missed.
Like that of a loving touch that can’t be taught,
Or the feeling of the moisture of her kisses upon my lips.

I’ve wrestled with so many ideas in my mind,
They all lead back to you.
To come home and hold you close and tight,
Never to let you go until my last breath passes through.
I’ve heard the whispers in the air my love,
As I see my tears collect upon the ground.
For your voice is carried on the wings of a dove,
To my ears it brings such a beautiful sound.

Your eyes pierce deep into my soul with every gaze,
You give me strength when I’ve been weak and tired.
When I was lost you were there to make me feel safe,
Together we have a love and passion growing wild.
How I just want to come home to you my dear,
Will you just reach out your hand?
Standing with you I’ve never worried over any of life’s fears,
Without you here I feel only half the man.
So will you lay with me under these stars?
You can hear all the words that I still want to say.
Sharing such a loving intimacy which will always be ours,
I’ll love you with all of my heart till the end of my days.
