That place with padded walls and funny people in white.........

Each letter from you
Is a flower pressed in my memory

Each kiss from you
Devoured as a treasured delicacy

Each word from you
A note from a soaring song

Each hug from you
A sanctuary in which to belong

All the affection from you
More precious than the glittering stars

No diamond on Earth
Is harder to break than the love that is ours
