Forever

Let me hold you one more time before you go.
Kiss me one more time before you leave.
Just one more time.

I should have taken your hand.
Made you come back.
I should have convinced you not to go.
Held you hostage.
I should have told you to stay.

Now when I sleep,
I hear your voice.
Singing to me.
I feel the ghost of your lips on mine.
I smell your scent everywhere.

I’m open and lost.
My soul is missing you.
My twin flame extinguished.
But my eternal love lives on.

I know you’re waiting for me.
In that place we always talked about.
Where the sun shines and the breeze envelopes you
With the scent of lavender and oak.
Where the trees breathe and grow so strong.
Where the grass is as soft as pillows.

I’ll see you again, my love.
I’ll meet you in our secret place.
One day we’ll be together again.
Then we’ll stay wrapped in
each other’s arms.
Forever.
