In nightmares I see you
Memories of what we had
Insane visions of you lost to me
Something is wrong, it cannot be true
Strange things happen, a terrifying view
Yet I see the future now
Only glimpses and shadows
Uncovered truths, an unbroken bough
Phantoms of a time to come
Landscapes painted of ochre sands
Echoes of a life not yet lived
A chance to grasp at one last crumb
So our hearts, to love succumb
Eyes open upon today
Captivating beauty before me lies
On seeing you, my fears allay
Marking time with every breath you take
Even as you sleep, I love you more
Basking in your radiance, dawn breaks the night
As you open your eyes the day can now break
Caressing your cheek, easing my ache
Kisses come next, one upon your nose
Lips touching and lingering
Our love together, now we expose
Verging on tears, a smile on our lips
Every second we share pulls us together
Merging our lives and our spirits as one
Euphoria bursts from our fingertips
Xanadu is nothing our love can’t eclipse
