Backdrop Of Eternity

 
I want to hold you against backdrop of the promise of eternity
Dip your head back, gaze at you with sincerity
Run my hands through your hair
Like we would blades of grass lying in the yard
No blankets, who needs them
It's a false sense of security "protecting" us from the world
Darling, this will not be easy and it will not be painless
This life, and this world, and us people, are not good to each other
But despite inherent flaws we take leaps and we take bounds
And I becomes we effortlessly
The habit is so hard to break
When you learn that some forever's
Simply are not as long as others

Maybe that's why we fight against the grain
And love anyways
We take risks because what fun is it
To play with god mode on
You have to be able to get hurt
Life was not designed for endless bliss
Sometimes the pain of love is just as sweet
As the first tender kiss
As beautiful as the stary night
You once saw in a lovers eye
As we lay there in the grass
You leaning over me
And I hold you to the backdrop of eternity

A promise I will carry until the day our paths part
I will be right by you
I will cherish you
If life dictates a departure
I will remember your scent
The way you dressed yourself
Your silhouette
Your footsteps
Your stuttered breath
Every time I held you
Know... that I savored it

I long to hold you against the backdrop of the promise of eternity
Dip your head back, kiss you tenderly
Have you feel as beautiful as you are physically
Look at you endearingly
Every word spoken, I swear, is of sincerity
Sweetness, I promise to make you float until I don't
Despite inherent flaws, I will try aways
This habit is so hard to break
When you know that some forever's
Simply are not as long as others

Darling you will be the world in my arms
I will nurture and protect the garden of your heart
Through every stormy, teary night
Through every radiant sun licked day
In the trying times and the easy
I am not perfect, but I will do my best
To ensure you feel loved every day
That you feel beautiful every moment
I will never forget times we spent
Lying in the yard on the grass

A promise I will carry until the day our paths part
I will be right by you
I will cherish you
If life dictates a departure
I will remember your scent
The way you dressed yourself
Your silhouette
Your footsteps
Your stuttered breath
Every time I held you
Know... that I savored it
