Nights in White Satin

Nights in white satin, never reaching the end
Letters I've written never meaning to send.
Beauty I've always missed
& these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
Cause I love you. Yes I love you. Oh, how I love you!
___________________________________________

Your lips, in their soft heart shape, draw me to them without a single word escaping them.
The silence of the room soothes me. All I can hear is the in-and-out of your breathing, the silver rain beating angrily on the roof, and the wind whipping wet droplets to my window. All I can see is you....and your eyes. They speak such eloquent words.
Their normal turquoise & golden inner rim has transformed into a moody blue-gray.
And, oh, the things they tell me! There's nothing like the sweet woes your eyes have whispered to me. You can say a thousand words and they will never compare. They beg, under the dark curtain of your eyelashes, for my closeness to you. They plea, behind a brim of moisture, for my love...always. You must know, so well by now, that you have my heart in your teeth. My dearest beloved, I am a prisoner to your love, eternally.
You are the brightest light of my life, the sun in my eyes, the warmth in my skin. Deeper still, beneath my skin; within my very soul.
You, Nathan, are my everything. My every thought. My every wish. My every prayer. And in such shocking reality. You're my most precious and treasured dream come true. You are each breath that I draw in. You are the water I drink. You continue to replenish me. My cup is never empty! You are my shelter from the storm, and my greatest friend when I want to play beneath it, splash in the product it leaves on the streets. You are the sweet, enchanting melody in my ears. You are the cool breeze on my bare skin. You are like chocolate melting on my tongue. Like moisture to dry, cracked skin. Like food to an empty stomach. Like sleep to a weary, tired soul. You are my ocean, my sky....so vast and wide; your love for me never-ending. You are the pulsing of my heart. The strength in my limbs and my will. You are my everything.
I believed in love, before you. I knew it was out there somewhere, searching for me too. I remember gazing longingly out at the crescent moon, knowing that we were under the same sky, looking up to the same silver Luna.
Maybe there were times when I'd hoped for the love of my life in another boy....I was only proven wrong in the end. Just another naive teenage girl who'd experienced a little something called puppy love. I haven't a doubt in my mind about this, beautiful love. We were meant to be, Unconditionally & Forever.
Don't you see, now, that you will never have to ask for my heart? You've already won me over. Heart and soul. Body and mind. I'm completely bewitched. Thoroughly spellbound. I couldn't back out if I tried....and I never would. The thought is impossible. It's devastatingly impossible now.
I love you more than the life that I live. My life is you. You are my life.
All of you, every second of every minute of every day of every week of every month of every year for the rest of my life.
You have my love, always.
