eternal embrace

oh to be stuck 

in an eternal embrace

to lock arms with you

for 6 000 years

to always be by your side

to stare deep into your eyes until they become dark like the center of the universe. 

i feel it here

i feel it with you

my soul swells and weeps in eternal happiness 

every tear i shed

is another ' i love you ' i silently tell you

i whisper to you each night as you lay your head to rest

about how deeply i desire 

the need to be

stuck in an eternal embrace with you
