Seconds between

 

I don't have anywhere I'd ever rather be,

or anyone with whom I'd rather

share this moonlit view.

I don't have another life I'd rather

live within, or another sight

I'd rather see than you.

 

I'm happy to just exist

in this moment,

watching the starlight satellites

darting majestically across your eyes.

 

I don't have any words I need to say,

or any fears left within me.

I just want to feel your lips

pressed against mine.

To believe in something truly divine.

 

I'm happy to just exist

on the whispers you leave,

which taste of hope and feel like dreams.

To weave in dance through the air

that we breathe,

believing in forever and the seconds between.

 

And, in loving sighs, I only want to share

with the starlight of my life, every droplet of care

that rains down upon us.

Every word of insight sung silently

on sleepless nights.

 

I don't have anywhere I'd rather be,

or another pathway laid before me.

I only want to hear you talk and share

in the story of your life,

for when we walk side by side,

I feel like my heart is flying high.

I have no-one I'd rather grow old beside

as the sunlight rides the heavens

and our minds glide on the golden

currents of forever skies.
