Forever Within Numbered Days

I don't know quite much of him yet.
A smile to melt gold
and a heart to revive mine.

Eyes like diamonds
I woke up with you there
A dream still placed deep behind my eyes.

I wondered what happens
when we pass along.
I thought of something he once said.
Does our life lift over energy
that feeds the earth
rejuvenating flowers like nectar?

What if our energy
passes to the loved ones
that survive us.
To always keep their memory
alive as they once were.

If so, his energy would be
enough to keep the world turning forever
To keep me smiling.
Until it was my turn to meet
The stars he had lit up for me every night.

I don't know quite much of him yet
But everyday I feel my soul shifting
to make room for him.

What if he holds a love
That was only meant for us
an energy that we might grow
to overflow us forever within numbered days.

I will die
and he will cease
But its possible our energy
set in timeless memory
will live on.
In every place that we visit
or after by our presence.

I don't know quite much of him yet
but if I have the chance
to love him forever
within the short time
I am here
I will have lived.
