Keep in mind that pretty much everything in the poem is symbolism. |
A collage of memories, outlined in pen Keeping track of every thought And all that follow Photographs in each other's arms Laced in wonder Kiss entwined, and a prayer is given And with eyes closed, we ask of God That this short lived ecstacy shall live to our dying breath A prayer where the answer sleeps with time At dusk, we dream they may be awoken And at dawn, in our own wake We'll stare into the mirror, but look into each other's eyes Our intimate that holds our hearts and laughter I will always remember When we kissed on that bridge Adorned with the blessings of the sky It knew the sanctuary of the moment I will never forget When we first made love Intimate and self-sacrificing Passionate and euphoric Alas, a kiss greets it's fate (to kiss you once more..) To last into Ever's abyss A river that did not cower to the ocean The kiss that fell far too short Take this as a token of my gratitute Kiss it and make a wish Throw it into the fountain And watch the ripples it makes As it journeys to the depths Find solace in this haven That I so delicately carved for you Close your eyes and stare at the stars Look at the picture they've drawn for us A picture of ourselves Kissing in a humble night's sky Listen to this song Hear this tune I wrote for you A melody of violin and harp Does it take you by the soul, As firmly as you've held mine? |
