In my heart you will always be my darling
upon my lips you were the breath of night
I was but a flame dancing
upon the lonely wick of moonlight

Sometimes I wish I had never met you
but than I would never know
the ultimate feeling of love
feeling of basking in loves glo

I became alive with the very thought of you
melting within the whispers of your voice
like a magnolia candle bright
melting down the shaft of midnight

Did you know I could starve to death with you?
feeding only on our fruits of passion
in the warmth of your arms forever
quenching your thirst with satisfaction

I asked nothing of you
except the reflection of your smile
in my heart you will always be my darling
your vision upon my pillow at night

They say truly to love is to forgive
and I forgave you long ago
I waited a lifetime for this feeling
maybe someday she will know
in my heart you will always be my darling
you called me your sweet Texas rose
but now I drift within petals in the winds
lost somewhere in a teardrop of afterglow

This is magnificent, Victoria...especially this part

I became alive with the very thought of you
melting within the whispers of your voice
like a magnolia candle bright
melting down the shaft of midnight

Great job!

Victoria - someone else said this, but I agree. 'Not bad for a lady from Texas'. Please take it as a compliment. I liked what you have written...
