Thinking of you keeps me entranced
in a passionate world of fantasy
with desires burning deeply and
ceaseless emotions held at bay
The discernment of knowing that
unless all inhibitions subside
my dreams would not prosper and
in my head they will stay
I once thought I was forever cursed
to walk amongst this earth alone
adrift through time searching for
radiance in an aura of unlight
A veracious effigy of a fallen angel
abeyant in a mystical veil of clouds
though vigilant to the world below
has no apparent gift of sight
Forged with the same steel as
the sword sworn to protect it
my heart was by far emptier than
the spurious smile on my face
You pierced this impervious fortress
armed only with a promise
gallantly I will grasp our relationship
with an exuberant embrace
Until I first endured the frigid road
that led me to your presence
I may never have felt your warmth
that I cherish and faithfully respect
An inseparable union will enhance
the very lives we aspire to fulfill
as we create elegant memories
upon which we can one day reflect
I now stand steadfast and bold
against the immeasurable distance
the dense fog once before me
is merely an apparition of a mist
My soulless passages of the past
have become a vehement quest
your undying love bestows me hope
and the inner strength to persist
