A Shadow of hope follows you as you glide out of the room
Soft light and softer lips fall with pondering joy upon my lips
Your skin lightly brushing mine as you lean in to touch my face
Soft like the cello playing you touch my heart in boundless measures
The glass you drink has my jealous attention
As the wine kisses your lips I stare in admiration
Finding my own thirst being quenched by your smile
I lick my lips just dreaming to kiss yours
As I rave of your beauty you smile
Blushing you look away unbelieving
Yet, you know my words carry my truth
Helen of Troy would have been jealous of your beauty
You don’t see that the sun only shines in your presence
That the clouds always part with reverence
The wind blows wild telling tales of your unmatched glory
and I watch in marvel holding your hand falling deeper in love
