Loving You to Infinity
We sleep under the same stars every night
And I crave you like the morning light
That seeps through the tree’s branches.
Your energy from your soul matches
Mine so perfectly that we might have been
Lovers in the previous life. When your skin
Touches mine it feels like I am finally home
Amid the stars and roots that have grown
Beneath my feet all this time. I can feel
Your love in your fingertips as you steal
That breath with your touch. I love you
Many times even as it faded away to blue.
And I crave you like the morning light
That seeps through the tree’s branches.
Your energy from your soul matches
Mine so perfectly that we might have been
Lovers in the previous life. When your skin
Touches mine it feels like I am finally home
Amid the stars and roots that have grown
Beneath my feet all this time. I can feel
Your love in your fingertips as you steal
That breath with your touch. I love you
Many times even as it faded away to blue.
