Love Poem: The Light

The Light

If I never get, the chance to taste your lips
While we share in this life
Or get to see you wear my shirt
As you lay down by my side

Then you can bet that I'll go to my grave
Wondering what could have been 
I'd rather drown in cool water of regret
Than to live this life again

I'd rather drown in your perfume 
Or by a fire, that's been set against my will
Then to spend a day not saying
You know I want you still

I hope I never go away
Without telling you goodbye
With my last breath, I would confess
That you've always been my light

She claims that I'm her light
But we both know, in reality she's mine
When darkness comes callin'
I know right where I can find

My little glimpse of Heaven
The one that lifts me way up high
I know these words will never be enough
To help me describe

Just how much I miss you
With each passing day that we don't talk
How much I'd love to hold your hand
And share my deepest thoughts

Life has never been the same
Since the day that I met you
My light in life, the one who might
Make my dreams come true

If I ever get to taste your lips
While we share in this life
I'll let you know how it been you
Who's always been the light
