Shadowed Love


I love you so much,
Don't know how to explain,
When you go sad and down
I feel I lost many things in my life…

The shadows,
Wear me down,
Narrow my focus,
Until the future,
Lies dark before me,
And I do not see you,
Standing before me...

I know,
I understand the darkness,
You feel within-
I feel the need to change it ...
I need to care for it ...
I love you so deeply,
More than anything in my world…

If you only knew
How much I needed you today,
To hold me, touch me,
Convince me I am real,
Alive and breathing,
I lay here baby,
And wonder if you can hear
My heart beating,
For I cannot,
It is silent,
And the emptiness
Is killing me today...

I Wish to fill your empty heart;
With more and more love ...
You are the women of my heart,
The one I live for-
The one I think of every hour-
I knowing you are a women,
Of dark and brooding thoughts,
But you are also,
A woman of love and romance-
I love you for who you are…

Then come to me my love,
Save me from the darkness in my soul,
Fill me with the light of your love,
And let me fly like a dove,
Into the beautiful sky,
I don't know why,
You chose to love me,
But I hope you see,
How deeply I love you too,
No matter what you do,
My heart and soul belong to you...

I know baby,
I know the depth of your love,
You keep it safe for me.
It is something so pure and true -
I look at the beauty of your heart,
respecting you with my heart and soul-
I love you so much and want to say
you are mine,
And I will love you forever…

Then make me yours,
Mark me with your love,
Lay kisses on my throat,
And fill my heart with your love,
So the darkness in my soul,
Has no place to go,
Hold me baby,
Hold me so close,
And never let me go...

I am holding you close to my heart,
Hugging you so tightly against me,
Praying to god that you don’t,
Bring darkness into our life.
Don't bring shadows into our dreams…

I love you baby,
Let your light pierce that darkness,
Destroy the night that dwells so deeply within me,
Let our love shine in the light of the day...
I pray your love can lift those shadows,
And cast them far away,
Then our love will shine like the stars,
In the midnight sky…

My own forest has kept me away - although in spirit never distant - from yours for a while... and then, I walk into this place of beauty, and find this wonderful, wonderful duet of perfect love... so deep in meaning... so beautiful!...
