It Is You, Darlin, Who Stole My Heart

We had climbed the tall blue mountain
To touch the eagle's wing
Trekked the valley far below them
To drink from crystal springs

We had walked among the tall grasses
Through wildflowers we were lead
They stood like noble kinds and queens
With crowns upon their heads

The goldfinch and her family
They kiss like you and I
In the morning and come the evening
They sing sweet lullabies

I look back across the seasons
Thankful you were there
To have wrapped my arms around you
Put ribbons in your hair

If tomorrow holds my promise
It will be to forever gaze into your eyes, Megels
And dance with you forever
In a land with no good byes

When I look back
On the dreams I left behind
buried there in all my thoughts

I saw you, Megels, as I saw you then
Through love's impassioned blindness
A heart so fashioned there within
Filled with love and kindness

How often has my heart declared
With anguish, for my words are few
That the wind shall blow a little longer
To keep me here with you

Sweeter still are the pains of love
The bonds of love grow stronger
Even after the moonlight has gone to sleep
I shall always love you longer

No other can stir my heart so deep
Or thrill me through and through
And in my dreams there will never be
No other love but you

When I look back at times gone by
There is one sure thing I know
It is you, darlin, who stole my heart
And it will beat every day hoping to be back with you

Always

Love, Your Edward

Until I First Laid Eyes On You

I thought that I'd seen beauty
I thought I'd witnessed grace
I thought that I'd known love
Until I gazed upon your face, Megels

I thought I'd felt my heart beat
I thought my knees were weak
I thought I'd heard a songbird
Until I heard you speak

I thought the rose was fragrant
I thought the sky was blue
I thought nature wonderful
Until I first laid eyes on you

I thought the sun was shining
I thought I'd seen it all
I thought that I was standing
Until you made me fall

I thought my eyes were open
Yet now I'm not so sure
I think that I may be in love
Like I've never loved before

I'll hold on to these feelings
And keep them safe within
Until the time they are needed
And true love can begin

A beautiful darlin with eyes on fire
That sparkle and laugh that can smile and cry
I love your eyes so clear and true
Beautiful darlin dew I adore you

A twinkling look that bubbles bright
With a heart to care and a heart to love
With hands to hold and hands to help
Beautiful lady there to give

Beautiful darlin a smile so bright
So warm and gentle, such a delight
A voice so clear
That calms and soothes

Beautiful darlin
I'll give you my thoughts and hopes
I offer you my heart and strength
My love is yours forever

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Graced My Presence Darlin

People speak of fate
And meetings of chance
Finding of soul mates
And love at first glance

Alignment of planets
Shooting stars up above
Fullness of the moon
And pairs of white doves

I've never taken stock
In these symbols and signs
But having met you, Megels
Proved I'd been blind

Poets write of hearts
Eternal devotion
Flames of desire
And new found emotion

Love ever lasting
A lifetime of bliss
Heaven here on Earth
The passion of a kiss

I've never found valid
These words foolishly penned
Then you graced my presence darlin
And proved me wrong again

Singers sing of heartache
And the one that got away
Internal emptiness
Pain that still remains

Missed opportunities
The hollowness of night
Paths that never cross
Timing that wasn't right

I never dreamed those songs
Could ever ring so true
Until I thought of life
Without ever knowing you

Missing you and all that you stand for
Every day a piece of me missing
The most important
Being you

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoox

No Matter The Distance

When times are hard

When news is bad

When life seems a universe from brightness and joy

When this happens, Megels

I need you to know

There is a person close

Who feels every tear

A person close

Who holds you dear

When you cry

He cries too, not always to see

But always with the full depth 

Of his beating heart

When you do not cry

But the pain shows in your eyes

He will know

And share his too

His passion hidden

Under a stoic umbrella

A shield of calm

Prevents emotion displayed

He knows of your journey

Through the turbulence of life

He respects and admires

The tireless fight

He hates a world

That could cause you pain

Such innocence undeserving

He longs for your return to the sun

A summer's mind where fears dissipate

Like seeds in wind

To see what he loves

Your smile to infinity

Your passion for life, Megels

With vigor

With humor

With cheer

So look over your shoulder

And he'll be there

No matter the distance

The time, he'll be there

Watching you in sleep

Aloof in morning haze

As distance grows through day

The care for you remains

He is your soul mate

Your friend

Your protector

Your knight

He is, my darlin dew drop

He is me

Always

Love, Your Edward

I Just Want To See Your Face Again

Just wish I could find the words
That would make the meaning clear
About why I just love you so, Megels
And why I want you here

Why I need you here with me
So I can shower you with love
Why it is so clear to see
You are an angel from above

An angel sent from heavens high
To bring the lords own prayer
That you and I on blue skies fly
Share a love that is true and rare

A love that is so truly pure
That it completely fills my heart
A love that will forever endure
And that we shall never part

A love that will last you see
Until the end of time
A love which joined us darlin
And forever our hearts would entwine

It may be raining outside
But not even a flood could sway my memories
Running through the rain with you
When we got stuck in it at Universal

Just a quick thought of any of our Universal trips
Something in my stomach and heart drop
Like a bad PTSD trip
Depression swoops in and I have to hold back tears

I knew true happiness when I was there holding your hand
A smile I never thought I could wipe away
It's so so hard to go on every day missing all those days
Even just the drive there

I miss all of it
I miss you
I would give the entire rest of my life
Just to have those days with you again

I want to hold your hand through the crowd
Make our inside jokes while in line
Walk the lake at the end of the day
I just want to see your face again Megels

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

A Place Where Two Hearts Beat As One

If I could take you to one place, Megels
To one very special place
I would take you to my heart

You would sweep through it, like fresh rain
Swirling across my landscape
Drenching on my soul
Blossoming hope, in my wounded places

And in return, I would fashion a world there, for you
A space where you could sit, quietly
A place where you could laugh, uncontrollably
A moment when you could love, unreservedly

In my heart, you would rest
Wrapped in my spirit
Warmed by my heat
Riding at the very center of me

I have learned much of love
And much that I have learned is hard
But I have not let it harden my heart
There is a place there, for you darlin

There is a place of peace
There is a place of joy
A place away from loneliness
A place away from pain

That place is next to you
A secret garden
Where black and white becomes a colorful place
Of loving, kissing, touching, caressing

There with you and only you
Cares of the world melting away
Anger and fear are not allowed
Prejudice cannot enter

A place where two hearts beat as one
A place where two souls are interwoven
Touching the inner place of one another
A place that I long to come back to again and again

A place of sweet abandon
A place next to you

Always

Love, Your Edward

Someday Be Together Again

I want to share my feelings
And I don't know how to start
But every single word I say
Is coming from my heart

The first time that I met you
All you said was hey darlin
It was really just a simple phrase
But it took my breath away

You were very fun to talk with
You were extremely sweet and kind
I was in love with every thing you said
You were amazing in my mind

You filled my days with brightness Megels
You lifted me up when I felt blue
You made me feel like I was someone special
So I'd do anything for you

For you, I'd walk across the desert
So hot, without a breeze
For you, I'd dive into the ocean
And be swallowed by the seas

I barely even knew you
So it was a happy surprise
There was nothing that you could do wrong
Because you are flawless in my eyes

I always wonder where you are
And I wish I could be there darlin
You're so far away
But I can feel you everywhere

You're the constant beating in my heart
You're the blood rushing through my veins
You're the light glowing from a moonbeam
You're the crystal droplets in the rain

You're the colors in the sunset
You're the rustling of the leaves
You're the twinkling in the nighttime stars
Your'e the very air I breathe

I care for you each hour
I dream of you all week
You're the last person running through my mind
Before I drift to sleep

I'm so grateful you were in my life
Maybe someday we'll be together again
I love you Megels, and only you
I always will, forever

Always

Love, Your Edward

To Burn With Love

In the stillness of a sunrise
The winds of time stood still beneath
Forsaken shades of blue skies
Soft clouds with gliding shadows

I've heard the music of your heart darlin
Through your soft whispers in the wind
And the gentleness of your smile
From all seasons we have both shared
That ignite the power of love

Your passion held me in its warmth
From the melody of your thoughts
And cravings you pen with your words
That touched the core of my desire

Within the depths of my longings
I'll walk with you through the ages of time
And in every moment of life
I will hold you close to my heart Megels

Day descends, night unfolds its cape
And for just one instant in time
I reach, touch the stars, and I feel
My heart beat with the rhythm of yours
And my soul dances to its tempo
You are my world, my heart, my pulse

My heart so cold and hard like stone
Closed and quiet and always alone
Through the days I go with fear
That my heart will disappear

To freeze like ice to no longer burn
To leave my chest and never return

The days did pass to leave me bare
Of love and happiness I did not care
My heart so dark as black as coal
For in my chest there is a hole

A robot I became no heart but steel
For love nor pain I could not feel

But then my heart begun to burn
For love and passion to return
Gone are the darkness and the cold
My heart so open and so bold

To burn so hot, so bright, so true
To burn with love, my love for you Megels

Always

Love, Your Edward

My Desire For You, Unmistakable

The evening sun shining down upon your face darlin
Your dazzling hair flowing softly in the gentle wind
Your shapely cheeks filled with rosy plumes
Your stunning eyes melting me with but one look

The midnight moon brightly luminescent
My love for you made clear in the night
My passion blazing through the darkness
My desire for you, Megels, unmistakable

The morning dew gleaming radiantly
Your intoxicating smell captivating me
Calling to me drawing me near
Pulling me into you losing myself

The afternoon rain bringing life to all
Standing in showers waiting for your man
To take you away, to a wonderful place
Where all your cares disappear

I caress your face, my hands through your hair
Your tears slowly away, never to return
My arms around your delicate body
Relieving all fears, all worries

Our eyes once met
Never leaving
Our lips once pressed
Never yielding

Our minds once merged
Never apart
Our hearts once one
Together always

Time apart only makes the heart yearn more
Growing and realizing my mistakes and shortcomings
Knowing in my heart that you are the one
Missing you more than words are created

Held in my arms
Our hearts together
I would never let you go
As we watched the sun set together

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Lie In The Chambers of My Heart

My love
Every moment I inhale
I breathe you
You are like the air
That fills up my lung
With life
And no matter how much
I strive
To build the smallest of walls
Around to resist the urge
To flight this delicious sensation
I feel in your presence
You remain a distraction
A sweet temptation
Magically smoldering
And every minute you stare
I am caught in a snare
Helplessly I sigh
Your eyes are a spark
They light up a fire
Burning red hot in my heart

My love
When it rains, it pours
But you, you quell the storms
You are my Mars
My seventh heaven
When you blurt out words
And I hear your voice
I am disarmed
My limbs get wobbly
I am held spellbound
In the hypnosis of you

I love you, Megels, no doubt
But those words are partial
For they do not in the least
Spell out the very least
Bits nor pieces
Of this whirlpool
This maelstrom
This mount of emotions
The deepest of affections
That I feel for you

My love
In the deepest part
Of the chambers of my heart
There you lie
Dwelling, swirling in pleasure
For there in my heart
You have found your home
And in yours, mine
And when our hands touch
And our fingers entwine
Your face, lips, no further from mine
Chills run all over my spine

Oh my darlin Megels
Give me more and more of you
For I can hardly get enough of you
You are to me
The wings to the birds
The wand to the wizard
The oasis to the desert
The waters to the river
My breath, My world
My heart, My love

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxooxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxooxxoooxoxoxoxoxo

I Give All That I Am To My Soulmate

If I could
I would give you the sky
But all I have is my breath
To bring new heights

If I could
I would give you the ocean
But all I have is my heart
The depths of my love

If I could
I would give you the sun
But all I have is my body
And its warm embrace

If I could
I would give you the moon
But all I have is my soul
To light the dark

If I could
I would give you the stars
But all I have are these dreams
That we'll reach them one day

If I could
I would give you all the beauty found in this world
But all I have are these hands
To paint your picture

If I could
I would give you the heavens
But all I have to give
Is the intent of you

With every breath that I take
Every beat of my heart
Only for your sake
The warmth of my body, your sheltering place

The light of my soul
The darkness will fade
The space in my mind
In dreams and awake

And my hand, reaching out
A future we'll make
So take my hand, Megels
And together our heaven we'll create

I give all that I am
To my one true soulmate
You, Megels darlin

Always

Love, Your Edward

It's Really A Painting of You, Megels

I've been thinking of a painting
That I've created in my mind
It's a painting of something special
For which colors are hard to find

I've searched all over
Even the rainbow that leads to the gold
In hope of finding those special colors
For my canvas to hold

I know this painting would turn out right
If I had those colors to start
Special colors full of emotions
From which I could paint from my heart

I'm not really a painter
Just a person with an empty palette of dreams
Someone searching for the color of love
And searching forever as it seems

What is the color of love
And why is it so hard to find
I know exactly what it looks like
But I only see it in my mind

Perhaps those colors are already with me
Somewhere deep inside
And can only be released through my emotions
Which I know I just can't hide

There's a masterpiece in my heart
Which my canvas will soon acquire
And with every brush stroke that I'd make
It soon would be ready to admire

Where is that special color
That I need so very much
To add to my palette
And give my paintings its one final touch

This vision I have in my mind
Is really a painting of you, Megels
There's no need for rainbows
Only feelings that I know are true

I believe with all my heart
That love is any color you want it to be
For a masterpiece painted with love
Can be very special for you and for me

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Completely Completed Me Darlin

Would you catch me on your tongue
When I fall down like rain
Could I evaporate in your kiss
So I could fall down again

Would you comfort me with your heartbeat
As it keeps time with mine
Like a beautiful concerto
Of love so divine

You're like an angel, Megels
Made with gossamer wings
In your hair I am tangled
And it's the sweetest of things

You completely complete me
If that's even possible
So save me sweet seraphim
We can be unstoppable

Will you love me unconditionally
Even at my worst
Even though it's a fallacy
That I fell first

I'll lay bare all that I have
On the ground at your feet
As long as you love me
With a burning fire's heat

You're like an angel, Megels
Made with gossamer wings
In your hair I am tangled
And it's the sweetest of things

You completely complete me
If that's even possible
So save me sweet seraphim
We can be unstoppable

I want this to last
To grow
Like a rose
Blooming with such beauty

And never die
I want it to keep its color
Pressed between well read pages
Saved forever

Brilliance never seeping away
Perfume never fading
Never losing any part
Of what it is now

I want this to last forever

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxxxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Whatever It Takes To Be Yours

If I had you next to me, Megels
Missing you so much today
We would lay down snuggled up together
I would tell you a story
One of those ones you loved so very much
As you closed your beautiful brown eyes
I would hold your hand and tell you this

I knew this day would eventually come
When I'd want to say these words to you
And it's these words I hold in my heart
That I now feel I need to renew
I've thought about what I wanted to say
And was waiting for when the time was right
To say exactly what's on my mind
While you're sitting here with me tonight

I know I get caught up in my own little world
And sometimes I tend to forget
The true meaning of those little words
Which entered my heart the day we first met
If you'll move just a little bit closer
I'll describe the moment when this all began
When I knew you'd be my special lady
And I would be your lucky man

It was an evening in time when I held you close
As we listened to the falling rain
Sitting in front of a warm flickering fire
Sharing our dreams with a glass of champagne
Somehow, I never could have imagined
Spending an evening like that with you
As we talked between the falling raindrops
And expressing our points of view

With my arms wrapped around you
I thought about how hard it would be to let you go
Then you turned around and kissed me
Only then at that moment did I really know
We fell in love on that special night
But I couldn't find the words to say
As you were the only one in my life
Who has ever made me feel that way

When I looked deep into your eyes, Megels
And then I took your hand
I knew that all I ever needed
Was to love and to hold you all that I can
You became a part of my little world
And knew that I could never let you go
Because your love meant so much to me
More than you could possibly ever know

After all these years
I needed to say how much I still care
And the only thing I ever wished for
Was that you would always be there
You will always be my darlin dew drop
And I love you so very much
I'd be lost in my little world without you
To share your love and your touch

With you by my side and a fire to keep us warm
We'll always welcome the falling rain
When we're holding each other and never letting go
As we fall in love all over again
The words in my heart still mean the same
After all these years
The best part of all was knowing
That my special girl still loved me too

I miss you darlin
Whatever it takes to be yours
I won't hesitate to do

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxo

I Can't Stop Thinking About You Darlin

Admiring the beauty of the ocean waves
Drifting towards the land
I wondered about the journey they travelled
To eventually reach the sand

I've always dreamed about taking a journey
To a place along the sea
Where every moment is timeless
In a world of magic and mystery

You and I were hand in hand, Megels
Watching the seabirds in flight
Appearing like a silhouette
Against the backdrop of the moonlight

We found ourselves on a magical journey
To a place we wanted to be
When we ventured into the darkness
Towards the sounds of the romantic sea

We walked along the shoreline
Pausing to write in the sand
As we engaged on this timeless journey
To a special wonderland

Some kind of magic took over my heart
When you looked into my eyes
As we held each other very close
Waiting for the sun to rise

I said how much I loved you
And you said the same to me
As we drew a heart in the sand
And creating another memory

We wrote our initials inside the heart
Knowing the tide would soon be in
To carry our love into the sea
And let this romantic journey begin

We will always share a moonlight
With the sounds of the romantic sea
When we hold each other in the darkness
For now and eternity

The wave that carries our special love
Will always drift on forever
As we journey to that magical world
Through the sands of time together

I miss you Megels
I just can't stop thinking about you
My mistakes haunt me constantly
I want to spend the rest of my life making it up to you

My heart is yours forever

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

I Cannot Dream of Living Life With Anyone Else

I'd love to give you my whole life, Megels
To make you glow, make you my wife
I'd love to buy you diamond rings
Soft silk and satin, a clock that sings

Lilac and pearls and walnut curls
A painted sea that ebbs and swirls

I'd love to have just half a chance
To watch you laugh, click heels and dance
If I could take you by the hand
We'd run barefoot on sloping sands

Where once you swam as time began
Stole birthday kisses from this man

I'd love to leap into your arms
To catch your breath, capture your charms
I'd set you free to fly forever
We'd dive and swoop and soar together

We'd own the sky, the heavens high
And every cloud that ever cried

If I could give you yesterday
We'd never find a better way
To live and love and share our dreams
To give so  much until it seems

Our hopes and fears, our salty tears
Have flowed as one through all those years

I look upon the letter you wrote every single day
Stare at our blue box that sits on the shelf
Wonder if your dreams ever contain me at all
Do you ever wish it was still just us

Is he the same as it was with me
The way you said you could be the real you

I sit alone looking out the window
Hoping one day the wind carries my words to you
I have never met anyone like you at all Megels darlin
Not a one measures up to you in every single way

I don't want anyone but you at my side
I will live out my life alone constantly waiting

Because I cannot dream of living it with anyone else
But you

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxoxoxoxoxxxooxoxxooxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Did I Tell You Today How Much You Mean To Me

It was the stars you know
Me becoming one with you
I would wish on them everyday
And my wishes did come true

You were more than just my lover, Megels
You were my very best friend
I knew that I would hold your hand
Until our time on Earth ended

Darlin, did I tell you yet today
How much you mean to me
For you my perfect match
I would swim the deepest sea

I would climb the highest mountain
If you were stuck on top
Kiss me once again my dear
And please never ever stop

My love for you I hold in my heart
Is an ocean, deep and wide
So far I could never cross
So deep I cannot reach

Its beauty like a rose
Whose bloom is full and never fails
Ever it grows

There is magic there
I saw it in your eyes
When first we met
I see it still when you turn your gaze my way

I don't understand it but I don't care
It is magic, beauty, and it is wonder
Every day, every gaze
It is like new and quickens my heart

Our love was a fountain of youth welling up
Young we would ever be
Dancing and dancing
My love for you, Megels, never growing old

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Are The Dream That Fills My Eyes

If I was a stream
Searching for the ocean
You would be my current, Megels
Keeping me in motion

If I was a seed
Buried in the snow
You would be my sunlight
Helping me to grow

If I was a spark
In the middle of the night
You would be my flame
Keeping me alight

If I were a ship
On a stormy morning
You would be my lighthouse
Flashing me warning

But I'm not a stream
Spark, ship, or seed
I am a person
And it's you that I need, darlin

I do not need a current
Lighthouse, flame, or the sun
All I need is love
And for me, you are the one

The sweetness of life
Expressed in many ways
As the passion of love
Always with you stays

The closeness of your heart
As I feel your body near
The sincerity of your smile
Every time you appear

The gentleness of your kisses
As they are laced across my lips
The taste of your love
As my heart slowly sips

Each and every moment
Is an endless paradise
Like drifting into a dream
You are the dream that fills my eyes

Missing you a lot darlin
Wishing to relive every single moment we had
Each and every day
My heart misses you so much

Always

Love, Your Edward

My Heart Will Love You Until Eternity

In any hour, place, and all circumstance
Only thoughts of one do occupy my mind
They are thoughts of you, Megels
And forever to you do I myself consign

In your times of absence, I yearn for your presence
In your times of presence, I yearn for your stay
You seem to me as vital to existence
As the rising and setting of the sun each day

Although we would face a great many obstacles
I also know if our devotion is true
That these will prove to be of little consequence
And our love may be perpetually new

So time goes by, my love endures
I love you more with each breath
Each beat of my heart

Night goes by, my love is eternal
Every sunset and sunrise
Strengthens my love for you

Daylight fades, my love is everlasting
I awake and you're sleeping beside me
My heart swells

Weeks pass by, my love is timeless
I hold your hand
Love shines in your eyes, a mirror of passion

Months disappear, our love is unchanging
We become one and share our hopes and dreams
And future

Years fade, our love is evermore
We vow to love and cherish each other
Till the end of time

Decades vanish, our love is ageless
We ripen and wrinkle like autumn leaves
Our love matures while our life light fades

My heart will love you until eternity
We will shine beyond the earth as infinity of stars
Souls entwined, heavenly sparks of love

Always

Love, Your Edward

My Light In The Shadows

I have this thing, Megels
Way up in the sky
It is my fortress
So very high

It is made up of my love
It is as real as can be
For you are my dove
The reason my fortress came to be

With each passing day
It grows more and more
Steadily rising
We begin to soar

My love are you ready
For this is where it all begins
Are you ready to fly with me
To my fortress in the heavens

I will guide you there safely
With my undying love
Come and soar with me
My beautiful dove

My light in the shadows
My shelter from the storm
The air when it's hard to breathe
That keeps me going on

The stitches when I'm hurt
The way home when I'm lost
The clear blue of the river
The bridge so I can cross

The moments that become memories
The sound so I can laugh
My protector when I'm threatened
You are my other half darlin

Always

Love, Your Edward
xoxoxxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxo

My World Stopped In Your Wake Darlin

In my dreams as a boy
I saw glimpses of your face shrouded in mist
I yearned to lift the veil Megels
But you'd always linger beyond my senses
I could almost reach out and touch you
But my fingers seemed to vanish into nothingness

Born a child of the heart, my love was destined to be true
Were it in my power, I should not have waited so long
The hourglass kept me company
As my imagination ventured where I could not
To strange lands always with you by my side

To have chanced upon you
While the youth still flowed through my veins
So many fantasies and visions so close but so far
Always a prayer on my lips for deliverance
To know that you are but to be in darkness
While your light shone from afar
My heart ached to beat with your own

When I had all but forsaken the hope of this romance
You walked into my eyes, my world stopped in your wake
Every desire seemed to spring to life in you
Every secret dream unfolded before me like a rose in bloom
The waiting had ended and the face that never was
I now beheld in rapture

Eyes that burned the very core of my being
Mesmerizing me with every word
That leapt forth from that delicate mouth
Music in my ears as we conversed, discovering out past and present
Unwilling to believe that I was finally home

To be crowed with your queen on the day you were born
Is a joy very rare
Our first kiss shook the very foundations of my being darlin
I was awash in a magical glow and lightning pulsated through me
I wanted to cry out in exhilaration
But I was numbed by the happiness that enveloped me

You understood me as I knew myself
I was complete in your love Megels
Our thoughts intertwined, fused together
The storms across my path I did not fear
For my heart beat steadily with your own
You are my beginning, you are my journey
You bear witness to my life's purpose
I am one with the universe and you are one with me
The fulfillment of a divine will

I try and forge ahead through this wonder
Not knowing what the future would bring
For the time that you had loved me
I had known a true miracle
It changed me, I was reborn never to be the same again
I love you as I live each day
Your dreams mine to soar
May the mystery that is life, unravel as we walk the path
A dream that you wish, will come true

Always

Love, Your Edward

I Long For Your Comfort Darlin

My love in a billion
Can't be here this day
Alone here on this cold afternoon
But knowing one day hopefully

Our love was so precious
No words could ever describe
How so much I want to
Be there by your side, Megels

When all is so quiet
I lie here alone
And remember the things
That remind me of home

Your beautiful smile
So honest and true
Not one thing but thousands
Remind me of you

My darling my sweet
My one true love's heart
Has been mine for the keeping
Right there from the start

Your voice pure and loving
A thought I hold dear
I long for the comfort
When you hold me near

Things change in an instant
Some people may say
But our love felt forever
Right here to stay

Our memories continue to float in my head
Every day yearning for more
The thought standing out most
Is the thought of being with you

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Are The Moon That Brightens My Sky

Time whirls a season with a burst of wind
That bellows through trees and dry autumn leaves
To fade in the twilight of your tears
And merge with the horizons of your soul
In alliance with all your dreams yet to come

I have heard your voice, Megels reflected in shadows
With words that flow like colors on canvas
Echo in my ears like soft violins
Of care, need, compassion, and desire
That ride on the sea of your longings

Your love breaks the silence of distance
And I feel the warm wind wrap me in velvet
With the harmony of  heaven and earth
Joy is not the road taken in the past
But the love that we pave for the future

As day bows to a heavenly night sky
I feel your thoughts from a soft gentle smile
As I listen to your dreams penned with sound
From your voice that emanates striking waves
And lightning flashes that kindle a fire

It is then you hold me in the palm of your hand darlin
You are like the snowflakes that fall upon my face
Bringing refreshing newness to a soul once arid and dry
You are like the song that seeps from the heavens
Bringing melodious grace to a soul once quiet and note less

You are like the sweet smell of earth that softens my step
Bringing assurance and blessing to a soul once faltering and alone
You are like the moon that brightens the sky
Bringing hope for a future and a longing for the morrow
You are like a breath, a whisper, a laugh, a tear

You are my life, Megels
My love
The one person I miss most of all
Constantly in my heart

Always

Love, Your Edward

I Never Stop Thinking About You Darlin

I look to the sun
I see the sun
The warm gentle glow
The spirit of fun

The walk in the heat
Down that once long street
The familiar face
I was soon to greet

The sun kept its light
Long after dark
That face lit me up
On my heart, it left a mark

It grew and it grew
And now covers my heart
Every little inch
Every little part

The sun gently
Faded away
Along came winter
And the long dull days

Night was day
And day was night
But you were still here Megels
Lighting up my life

Soon you became
My moon and my stars
Guiding me through the dark
And healing my scars

The clouds cover
But you still shine through
One of the many reasons
I never stop thinking about you

And now it's getting cold again
The clouds covering the shine
The months have changed
I remain waiting

The sun still tries to break through
A year has flown
The darkness still hovers overhead
And I think of you still

Closer and closer
Apart never
You're my soulmate
And I'll love you forever, Megels

Missing you
Missing us

Always

Love, Your Edward

You Are All Of My Tomorrows xoxo

I close my eyes
And feel your salty lips
I reach out my hands
And hear your voice
Mingle with the waves
Lapping on the shore

Memories linger
Like tenuous beads of crystal dew
On silk-strand cobwebs
And beads of sea water
Caught in your hair
And glinting in the sun

Our love was the concentric ripples
Of pebbles lobbed
As we play ducks and drakes
And our laughter
Echoes across this corner
Of the Mediterranean

Each grain of sand
Shimmering in the sun
On a halcyon day
Is a precious moment
We have shared
Basking in forever

My love for you Megels
Is infinite as the horizon
My wishes, hopes, and dreams
Are sunbeams swirling and darting
Amidst spun sugar clouds
In the aquamarine reflections on the sea

You are all my tomorrows
I love you
I miss you

Always

Love, Your Edward

A Perfection That Is You

It's a most daunting task
To find the words
That compare to the perfection
That is you, Megels

In your eyes
I can see a gentle warmth
That could comfort
Any tragedy there could be

In your smile
I can feel an elegance and kindness
That could remedy all the pangs and strife
Life can deal out

In your voice
I can hear a beautiful soundtrack
That I could listen to
For the rest of my days

In your body
I can touch a figure
That can be described
As nothing less than angelic

It is perfection
These elements, almost like paints
Used on a canvas to make a masterpiece
Unlike that which the world has ever seen

And I can gladly say until death
I was part of the world
In which perfection lived and breathed
Through you

Missing you so very much
Thinking about you daily
Not a night goes by without a dream of you
A happiness I could never replicate

Love was born with you
Opening my eyes to a love so unique
You are a rare instance in this life
One I have in my heart and mind

Always

Love, Your Edward

May This Night Never End

I can't sleep
I'm lying here tonight
Thinking of you, Megels
Your image lingers behind my eyelids

Thinking about the way you move
So elegant, like an oak tree
Swaying on a spring breeze
Thinking about the way you talk

So calm, like tiny waves
Gently lapping at the shoreline
Thinking about your beauty
So glorious like the sunset

Which marks the end of another night
Another night which I'm unable to sleep
Because I keep thinking of you
It's always you

In my dreams I would say
We are here together at last
This night is for us
Two lovers bound with a passion so deep

Deeper than any ocean
Hearts soaring higher than any bird could ever fly
May this night never end
I pray

I caress your skin
Your beauty radiates from you like a shining star
So bright
So full of life

I hold your hand in mine, time stands still
I can feel my blood swiftly moving
From my heart to yours through our trembling hands
May this night never end

Your eyes, pools of autumn emanating a love so deep
That it burns my soul with desire
A kiss, so soft yet full of passion
Sends a warmth throughout my body

A feeling of euphoria overtakes me
The embrace, lost in your loving arms
I pray for this to always be
So secure, so unafraid, so much love

Yes, darlin dew, this night is for us
Two lovers sharing our hearts
Our dreams, souls, our desires
May this night never end
I pray

Always

Love, Your Edward

A Moment With You Is Worth A Million Words

As the sun rises early
To kiss the morning dew
As the clouds dance so gracefully
Against the sky so blue

As the moon lights the ocean waves
That travels through the night
As the flame burns unwavering
And brings the dark to light

As the wind whispers softly
To stir the sleeping trees
As the rain gently awakens
The flowers up with ease

As the soul has a quenchless thirst
To be loved endlessly
So is your love that's captured my heart, Megels
And holds it eternally

Our skin touched
Our lips met
Our eyes found one another
And a force bigger than both of us

Overcame us with no warning
And in an instant it was if the world had disappeared
Nothing else existed
It was just you and me darlin

No words were spoken
No words were needed
Because no words could describe how we felt
Love is always indescribable

Our breathing slowed
Our hearts beat together
As if one heart
One love

And if what they say is true
That a picture is worth a thousand words
Then a moment like this is worth a million
Because in that silence we knew we were meant to be

Just you and me darlin dew
Together
Forever

Always

Love, Your Edward

New Years Wish Is You, Darlin xoxoxox

You are like Christmas morning
Bringing happiness and warmth to the day
You are the gentle breeze
Cooling off the month of May

You are the sun rising in dawn
Giving life to every living thing
You are that cheerful, sweet-filled song
That every bird does sing

You are the sparkle in the stars
That shines so far and bright
You are the silent, mild whispers
The still and calming of the night

You are that charming, beautiful woman
That every man dreams of
You are the truth for all to see
Of a real and faithful love

You are the one I turn to
When my fears and doubts arise
You are the one who gives me comfort
And never tells me lies

You are my world, my heart, my soul
You are my light when I'm lost in the dark
You are every breath of life in me
You are every beat of my heart

Wherever you are I wish I were you teddy bear
That lay upon your bed
So that every time you cuddled it
You'd cuddle me instead

I wish I were the pillow
You need to fall asleep
So that every time you went to bed
We'd lie cheek to cheek

I wish I were the blanket
That keeps you warm at night
So that every time you went to rest
I could hold you tight

I wish life were a fairy tale
Where all my dreams came true
And that every moment spent
Would be one spent with you

On this new years, I cannot help but think of you Megels
I remember all of our moments
I would give anything to be on that beach with you again
Sitting there holding hands and watching the sun set
I miss seeing the way the wind blew through your hair
How we shared every single one of our interests
I still have the hand written letter you sent me
I read it every single day and wish every wish I have upon it
I know I made so many mistakes
Never let myself grow up to be the man you needed
Truth be told, I never thought I would ever be without you
Yet here I am, another year passing and I can't hold you
There's so much I want to share and do with you
I miss being near you, the way you feel, the way you smell
The way I fit so perfectly inside your body
How it made you feel
The crinkly nose smile you'd give me
All of our in jokes and sayings from Universal to video games
I once again make my new years wish
I wish to be yours once again
You were the best thing to ever happen to me
I didn't appreciate you enough or care for you like my queen
I could never replace you
Trying has only caused me such damage, depression, and pain
2020 brings with it new days and new futures
But mine brings more stars to wish upon
More wishes that one day I can look over at you again
Kiss those perfect lips, say I love you
You made me feel like I belonged in this world
I miss you darlin dew
No matter how many days pass with time
My love for you
How much I miss you
How much I want to be yours
Will  never change

Happy new year beautiful Megels
I'm thinking of you darlin

Always

Love, Your Edward
