The Kiss of Life
Everyday I see you walk by me,
But you don't notice me.
I see inside your heart.
It looks for that one person, for me,
From long ago who invades,
Your dreams at night.
Her thoughts, desires and plans,
For the future that she yearns for,
Everyday as she walks the streets,
Looking for me.
I must interrupt this loneliness she,
Feels when I place one rose on,
The desk with a simple poem.
You must awake and see as,
I pass by you everyday.
My heart yearns for you forever,
In the centuries we have lived.
Meet me at our Oak tree where we,
Spent so many afternoons so long ago.
As the sun meets the earth at the end,
Of the day, I see you as always carrying,
The wine as we've done so many,
Times before.
I see you as your tears glisten in the sun,
And your heart beats as you begin ,
To breathe once again.
Your smile lights up my world as I look ,
Into your eyes remembering all those,
Days so long ago as you tell me ,
I thought you'd never find me ,
As we share that kiss of life.
