An original poem

When I look in your eyes,
I see the edge of the horizon.
Is it true, what I see when I look at you?

You touch my heart, you make my skin burn,
Late at night, in the dark, my body yearns
for your look, for your touch.

Long ago, I believed, I hoped, I dreamed,
and I still wish on the first star I see,
that someone, somewhere would love me,
but I never dreamed of you.

Yet, here you are, the very first star,
illuminating and radiating beyond compare,
not really what I wished for, but so much more
and I know I’m not alone in this world of danger

If you could only know – know in your heart,
know in the corners of your soul,
I am here for you, and even if we part,
some far away day,
I am yours until the end of this play.

There are reasons, silver linings,
There are lessons, but I don’t care,
it’s darker than death out there.
You’re where I belong.
You’re everything right when I’m everything wrong.

All the wrongs, all the mistakes, all the hurt,
fades away from memory in your arms,
and who knew, who could have predicted,
blue eyes on green, ocean on ocean,
the world is safe.
