Our Forever

Here is a poem that I have written for my boyfriend. Let me know what you all think of it.

Our Forever

A new day dawns without you,
Deep inside I die.
Another hour leaves me untrue,
Living another lie.

I don't recognize my reflection,
Without you by my side.
I don't feel our connection,
The truth I cannot hide.

The withered rose of September,
Displayed on my wall.
Do you miss me at all?
Your departure I still remember.

Who knew across the sea,
Love would find me?
A foreign voice a foreign touch,
Nothing I've wanted so much.

I feel myself slipping away,
Fumbling and stumbling.
I feel myself losing my way,
Falling and crawling.

The darkness embraces me,
I've lost this fight.
I miss you tonight.
An empty voice chases me.

Another lonely moon rises,
So dark so blue.
Will I ever find solace?
Will I ever find you?

My candle burns, my candle lights,
A deep and unyielding night.
My fingers tremble, my fingers ache,
There is so much at stake.

Another dawn breaks,
No more heartache.
Another hour, another chance,
I still feel your glance.

In my own reflection,
My own connection.
I don't need to hide,
What I feel inside.

A withered rose,
Not a withered memory.
Two immortal souls,
Together on this journey.

An ocean apart,
Together in one heart.
A foreign embrace,
A familiar face.

Slipping into ecstasy,
Fumbling and stumbling.
Lost in this fantasy,
Falling and crawling.

Darkness around me,
Warm in your light.
I'm with you tonight.
Your love surrounds me.

The lonely moon disappears,
Behind mountains of blue.
Finally my solace appears,
'cause I finally found you.

Now in the flickering candle light,
I sleep with you tonight.
So give me your finger,
Give me our forever.
