I love you now
And I will love you for
As long as I breathe until
My last heartbeat pounds
In my breast
Until I am gone
And even then my love will
Last forever.
I loved you then,
When we used to talk
And dream about the future
And our duality strengthened us
Until our souls kissed one night.
I love you now
And I will always cherish
The moments we have together
For I know that I love you
More than anything else in this world.
I loved you then,
When we cried each other to sleep
And when we laughed the happiest laughs
Until we spoke hours on end about life.
I love you now,
Knowing you are amazingly real
And seeing your perfect imperfections
And sighing in bliss every night
I dream of your breath on my face.
I loved you then
When I called you Angel for the first time,
And when you teased me gently,
Knowing that we were so very lucky,
And basking in the joys of us.
I love you forever
I love you till the moon turns red
I love you till the mountains crumble
I love you till the sands are washed away to the sea
I love you until I leave this earth forever,
And even then, my love will live on.
