A Love to Last a Lifetime

Missing image
Asleep in the sand for thousands of years
Content in your arms I feel no fear
Let the earth continue to turn
It’s for your caress that I still yearn
Wrapped up tight as bones turn to dust
Loving you darling is simply a must
Forever and a day I’ll be with you
The only man that made dreams come true
Held by you until the universe ceases to be
Next to my heart you’ll lie with me

    Ahh I love the eternal love sort of thing. That's what the real love is, none of that "I love you" crap after three months of knowing each other. Very nice flow throughout this write.

    Thanks for entering this and good luck!

    Dont know where you found that pic but it tells the same story of your poem without words! All your poems are unique and the messages of these shorter poems are greater than many longer poems I have read.

    Another unique take on love. Death's gentle caress extending into the beyond. Love should transcend all. Nice way to start my morning. Thanks for sharing. I pray for your family. The preciousness of life and love transforms us into much more than we used to be.
