Your Embrace

Always on my mind
Inside is where I keep you
treasured through the years
locked away safely
I don't want anyone to steal you
someplace I've never been
you show me the door
we tiptoe through the garden of despair
Have i mentioned I love you?
You are the birds in the morning
chirping me awake
you are the sunshine
upon my soft rosy face
you are the moon
humbling me again
you are a sense of wonder
letting me in

I long for you
when we are apart
and I think of what I should say
I miss you
when we are not together
and i fancy the things that you play
I love you soo deeply
I don't know why
I'll never let you know
I don't want to ruin what we have
so I'll let it go

Forever in daisies
tending to the garden
Always amazes me
how you never harm them
Dancing with destiny
I cry my selfish tears
jealousy changes tides
and I've learned much through the years
humility teaches lessons and bitterness subsides
I want to reach out and touch you
because you're always on my mind

Have I mentioned I love you
And I have since we met
our first dance
the first touch of your soft lips
upon my neck
and the first night we lay in bed
Tender heart and gorgeous eyes
with a personality of a saint
I long to see you again
I long for your embrace
