Hold Me, Kiss Me

Hold me, kiss me,
whisper, sweetly,
that you'll love me
forever.

Trace your fingers
down my spine,
let your heartbeat
echo mine.

Tell me stories,
soft and low,
of love that lingers,
of time so slow.

But promise me
swear it’s true
that even when
the stars burn blue,

when morning breaks,
when lips turn cold,
you won’t let go,
you won’t grow old

without me.
