Take My Hand Here's My Heart
surreal dreamlike reality
unexpected to say the least
savoring prized moments
precious pearls strung one by one
with bated breath
deep in our heart we realize
and know all too very well
there can only be one first
there can only be one first
genuine in appreciating its gift
a rare form of blessing
in its purest sincerity
to stretch beyond infinity
now that we grasp
how precious
truly it can be
there can be only one first
of that we can be sure
and all considered most likely
most undoubtedly our last
carvings in the silk of time
ripples across the ocean
to somehow capture
treasure and immortalize
