Tenderizing moments etched deep in my heart.
An echoing breeze
putting my heart in a flutter.
Tangled in a web,
being lost in my words kept me sane.
Those words protect me
from the loneliness I feel inside.
Closing my eyes,
I still feel the electricity
which has empowered my whole body
the first time our lips met.
Your touch paralyzed me
changing me forever.
Being with you helped me find myself.
Your aura shined through me,
helping me define the meaning of love,
trust, compassion and understanding.
Looking in your eyes,
I see a loving sensitive man
trying his best not to hurt me.
The hurt I feel inside
comes when you leave me behind.
I don’t want you to go.
I want you to stay,
but I remain silent
not showing you my tears.
You hold a power
like no other has held over me.
I give you my love,
a love that no other can ever match.
For you are my lover, my best friend,
and my soul mate.
I’ll always be your angel.
