Immortal
If I could only write to you
The severity of my sentiment
If characters were enough
To describe your character
Of kindness, strength and perseverance
If I could only sing to you
I would compare you to the spring
You have awaken dead parts of me
Gracefully revived through gentil strides
And once more I hear the birds melody
If I could only sketch
Your fire agate eyes
And the diagonal lines leading down
To your tender lips I long to kiss
I’d etch you into every corner of the earth
If I could only dance
My body would contort and spin
In an endless ceremony of sunrise
Feeling the warmth of the rays
Of your gaze on my skin
If I could only cast a spell
I’d deem our love eternal
So in the next life, if I can
(Write, sing, sketch, dance)
I will capture you immortal
The severity of my sentiment
If characters were enough
To describe your character
Of kindness, strength and perseverance
If I could only sing to you
I would compare you to the spring
You have awaken dead parts of me
Gracefully revived through gentil strides
And once more I hear the birds melody
If I could only sketch
Your fire agate eyes
And the diagonal lines leading down
To your tender lips I long to kiss
I’d etch you into every corner of the earth
If I could only dance
My body would contort and spin
In an endless ceremony of sunrise
Feeling the warmth of the rays
Of your gaze on my skin
If I could only cast a spell
I’d deem our love eternal
So in the next life, if I can
(Write, sing, sketch, dance)
I will capture you immortal
