Then There Was You
When I gaze into the evening sky, the stars form a constellation resembling your face
Looking down upon us mortals, illuminating the way for what was once my lost love
With my one hand, I reach up, outlining your features with a single finger,
Enjoying that face within these grabbing hands
A celebration of intergalactic proportions, here for my eyes only
My own Heaven on Earth
Crying for the desire of you, the need of you
Out of nowhere, materialized through passion and loneliness, saving my turbulent soul,
Rekindling my faith in Love
You and your beauty, answering my numerous prayers from all those bedside nights on bended knee
Fulfilling for me what had eluded me from birth: a righteous love, a love with no boundaries
Love manufactured and designed for us exclusively, the mold shattered, for one use only
God’s touch personally interwoven throughout the finished product
I had almost given up hope, burying myself in the problems of Man
Material possessions cluttering my being, working myself to the bones
All the while hanging on to the elusiveness of Love
Money not quenching, not remotely satisfying my thirst for you
Then there was you and I’ve been a better man from first contact
And I will be alone and spend the night with you
