The Most Breathtaking Love Ever Seen

The mortal eyes of passer-by's can't see the bigger picture...
But deep in space and deeply placed in the heart of God, 's my fixture...
My mold...my well of eternal passionate heat that caught flame to this body...
You seemingly rose up, quietly and politely out of the same mixture...

Not that I am anywhere near
                 The level of perfection that you've reached in my eyes...
But somewhere, deep in my soul is a mirror reflecting you and your life...

The simple minds of the wandering kind won't bear to see our future...
They fear that they'll soon, lose another of the few, 
               Who remain in the captivity of the loveless creature...

Meanwhile we remain at vigil, staring out our windows
Yearning for the day when we are holding each other 
                             In a mind numbing embrace...
Losing ourselves in the black hole of our lovely place...
Losing our souls in each other...
Waiting to hold hands in a field of watery dreams...fluid and genuine
Losing my heart in yours...yours in mine...
Pouring myself out of my container at your feet...and washing them gently...
Splashing around as children in our love flooded valley...
Picking lush and wild flowers while singing the songs that only we make...
The words...simply the sounds that our hearts create as they try to escape...
And deep in the shimmering ocean blue of your eyes...
I see myself...and the all encompassing love...
I see perfection as I begin to cry...

And as dusk settles ever so lightly upon Earth's gentle skin...
And as we hold each other and our eyes close,
               As we're taken into a starlit room once again...
A joyful tear falls from heaven, 
            And silences, as all the worlds watches the gleam...
A shimmer and shine from the most breathtaking love ever seen...
