Always

Her name is the most beautiful word Because her face is its definition Her laugh’s song Teaches heart to listen and ears to love Her opinion is the only one that matters Her joy, the best reward My heart pulls me towards her always Inescapably, maddeningly She is the sun of my thoughts She is the moon of my dreams My truest form reflected in her eyes The comfort of years, felt in one shared heart beat But a shot never fired misses all the more And all a heart’s desire Cannot inspire even a flickering thought Or quench hope’s never ending fire
