I would

I would, take my finger tips and touch the dew drops of happiness,
Then smear with it a smile on your face.

I would, eat the sun for the warmth and wipe my lips with the clouds,
Just to be the sunrise for your tomorrow.

I would, peal through the ocean’s depths to find your forsaken wish,
With no battle of function I would.

I would, fetch all the butterflies in the world and squeeze them into my heart,
Then we’d fly away to yesterday’s future.

I would, steal time to en-curl a longer day with you to swirl together.
And at midnight I’ll rewind… all over.

I would, count the stars in the heavens twelve times over,
If on me it would make you count.

I would, stand on the horizon’s edge catching the wind between my fingers
Then play the melody pristine.

I would, inhale your breath as you exhale so sweet it collides everlasting in mind.
As the clock’s hands recede.

*not finished yet… more to come.

This is beautiful... I look forward to later installments. *S*

'Sigh'...'Smile'....'Sigh'..love this. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
