In the space between moments

0 posted 2000-04-14 12:35 PM


This is dedicated to my boyfriend Jeff.  Tomorrow, April 14th is our 9 month anniversary.  I love you honey.  

Tender dewdrops of emotion
Slide upon golden skin
As tears purged in heartache
Flood with love again.

A gently flowing whisper
Traced upon the night
Offers such peaceful solace
From this blinded plight.

In shaky dreams I caught you
Within my yearning arms
And when chilled dawn did rise
Your love kept me warm.

And when a gaze turned to forever
The world began to glow
With a newly sparkling flame
Of eternity beginning to grow.

I've never felt so safe
As when within the depths of you
Nor ever wanted more badly
For our love to stay simply true.

You have my trust through time
And my love forevermore
For upon glittered wings of fate
We are destined to always soar.


 *Krista Knutson*
