Eternal Love
Lady Beth (5-31-01)
Down in the depths of my heart
Beyond the shell of my own creation
Lies the truth of my emotions
My heart remembers things I refused my mind
It remembers how he made me feel
When he held me in his arms
It remembers how safe it felt
It could tell that I loved him
However, it kept it a secret
He stands across the room now, watching me
It seems his heart knows the truth and he does now as well
As I met his gaze, I can tell
His blue-green eyes tell the story my own long to tell
Of the emotion, my heart refuses to revel
He is walking towards me
Smiling his gorgeous smile my way,
Pulling me towards him
For he specks not to my mind
But directly to my heart
We meet halfway
Instantly in each other’s arms
Not caring that we were not alone
We felt safe again
We felt whole
AS I look into his eyes
I feel the barriers fall away
Finally, my mind and my heart are in sync with each other
And I whisper to him the words I’ve always wanted to say
‘I love you’
He smiled again, pulling me close
Breaking any barriers, I ever had
He leaned in and whispered into my ear
The words I always wanted to hear
‘I love you too.’
His lips touch mine, and everything is forgotten
All the pain and hurt I have felt
Is washed away with this simple gesture
With that kiss, we seal out fate and our love
Forever we will be together
That day revealed everything to me
It showed me how wonderful love can be
It showed me more then that it seems
Because a soul mate was given to me
Now I finally know why love is such passionate emotion
Torn apart we often are
However, we always know that
When we return
The other will be waiting
Arms wide open to embrace us again
We are never truly far apart
For we always will be connected
By our love, by our souls, by our destiny
We are always within reach of each other
There was once a tale of Eternal love
And I can assure you it is true
Because as I stand here
Admitting my true love for him
And he, his love for me
I know our love is the Eternal love
That everyone searches for
And we were lucky to find
I turn my head and look out beside us
At those who collected together
To see my love and I become one
I realize that they believe it too.
Now as I look into the eyes of my son
I remember that true love last forever
The proof is in our son
The little boy smiles
And looks up at me
Knowing he was born into and of love
Eyes that match his fathers shine up at me
With his own love
He is standing beside me, watching as well
As the pure testament of our love
Lies in a blanket in my arms
Basking in his parents love
We look at each other
Yet, neither says a word
Our eyes have already shouted it out
Proclaiming the words of what we felt
‘I love you forever,
My eternal love’
