there was a time
when the world was all seemed
your eyes would twinkle
mine would sparkle

the world was a waterfall
that led to a magic river
where we would float on dreams
far away towards an ocean
as clear as love.

there was a time
when in the meadow
we'd sneak out
to see the fireflies
and in the skies we'd see the stars
we'd hold each others hands
our lips would greet
we'd wish for nothing more
than life so sweet.

there was a time
when rain fell down
soaking us worse than ducks
we shivered and chattered
in the end we got a cold,
but we did not mind
instead we laughed it off
amid cups of boiling tea
and steaming bowls of soup.

there was a time,
when we got trapped out in the snow
and i hugged you
you kissed my cold nose
and in that moment we braved the storm.

there was a time

there was a time when all was right
and we swore
deep inside our cores
to love and die side by side
there was a time when nothing mattered
because we were one

those times i remember them all
the movies where we cuddled
the morbid jokes we use to say
just to here the other laugh
the tiny things we'd do
just to see each other smile.

now
i only hope your happy
but i yearn
i long
to see you to hear you
to hold you
and love you
and never let go

for as i've often said before
without you
i fear
i would slowly turn to stone.

As valid a declaration of love as I have ever heard. (I like to read the poems out loud.)
Stunning, really stunning.
