Lovers Apart

There is no such thing as life, without you

There is no such word as love, without you


Every day, I see the flowers bloom, the stars shining in your eyes

Hopefully, I come to see them, gleaming twice as bright as the skies


I always thought I was a stranger to you

But being here with you, reminded me of the

Longer, days I had spent alone

Yonder, aborted ways I had wasted – abalone

You, my love, set me free from cowardly desire

Such beautiful thoughts and words, I could hardly respire


You bring rainbows to my mind

Even my senses feel it from behind

The moment we met; I was head to toes in love

Like a falling leaf, picked up by a dove


I was swept by you

Carried by you

Until I reached my paradise

It was then my feelings started to galvanize

The sunshine on my face when I'm sad

The moonlight in my soul when I'm had

I will believe in us till the end of time


Just as long we keep our shoulders ahead for the dime

Devastation, destruction, deprivation – all

Cease to exist in front of our remediation

It's our job to keep going

Otherwise, the world might as well go booming


Never felt for someone like this

Never fell head over heels like a chef's kiss

Ever wondered what love felt like?


I only know that, 

From something just like this
