Room to Dance 

In my mind’s eye I’ve created our magical romance,

The sweetest most perfect love if we’d only take the chance.

I can hardly imagine the incredible power,

the image it haunts me in this dark hour.

From the moment I saw your beautiful face,

I lost all my faith in the human race.

In all my years I never could fine,

another so innocent, so pure and so kind.

A bond was formed that day not like we had ever planned,

that I should love you forever, no one could understand.

A love so true it’s hard to comprehend,

a genuine flame burning strong will never end.

Your loving heart glows through eyes so true and warm,

a beauty unmatched, an angel in human form.

We were drawn together by destiny, or maybe even fate,

I’ve found my once in a lifetime, you are my perfect mate.

Take a risk with me in a mystical romance,

for our hearts may never find enough room to dance.

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way than this:

where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
