You Forever Changed My Life Darlin

You walked lightly into my life, Megels
Captivating and lovely to my mind
At first, all I did was tell you stories
Now I don't know who I am without you

You kissed me
I felt my world change
You held me
I heard my heart awaken

You loved me
And my soul was born anew
You walked lightly into my life
Now my heart knows who you are

And with every breath
And every step
I take down lonely roads
Your hand is my staff

Your voice is my guide
Your strength my shelter
Your passion my awakening
You walked lightly into my life

And all my pain
You took as your own
And all my fears
You cast into the sea

All my doubt
Lost in your eyes
You walked lightly into my life
And no matter what my heart is yours

My life is forever changed
Just because you loved me
For a moment in time
And because I'll always choose you

To love you
To miss you
Every day
For the rest of mine

Always

Love, Your Edward

I Love You With A Permanence

Your soul is like the vastest sea, Megels

And mine a darting fish

I lose myself within your love

I live within your heart

I breathe your love, it is my air

My element, my world

I know no other ambiance

I have no other dream

I know there is outside your love

A world of rocks and sand

And I could live there too

How poor and thin each breath

How rich my world, how beautiful

Alive within your love darlin

Each moment filled with dancing light

Refracted through your eyes

I love you with a permanence

That endures the passing years

I love you with a joyfulness

That subdues all doubts and fears

I love you with an honesty

That was born within my heart

I love you with the calm belief

That we would never part

I love you with a confidence

No earthly force can sever

I love you with the certainty

That I'll cherish you forever

I love you with the humbleness

Of one who has been blessed

I love you with the reverence

Of all that word suggests

I love you with a fervor

That time cannot reverse

I love you with the truest love

That poets put to verse

I miss you darlin

Miss our adventures

All our laughs

My heart misses yous

Always

Love, Your Edward

I Love You Like I Love the Rain

I was once lost in darkness

A wandering nomadic fool

Teetering on the edge of reason

About to plunge into the abyss

Then a light shone down

Lifted me out of darkness

Touched my soul with grace

And beat love into my heart

That was when I met you

Beautiful darlin dew, Megels

For so long 

You continued to save me

Day after day

You gave me the reason to be

To live and to feel love

To go on and find my dreams

As long as you were there

I just wanted to let you know

That I could never fully express

How much I feel for you

When I love you

Seems so simple

How can you put into words

The power of desire I have for you

Pray to God

Channel the muse

And let my fingers type the words

My heart beats because of you

My soul is bright and alive

Because of you

And even when the trails of today

Seem to distract me

My love is always devoted to you

It is eternal within my heart

Like a constant thunder in my soul

I love you like I love a day

When everything goes right

I love you like I love to lay

And watch the stars at night

I love you like I love the rain

Its lustful calm embrace

I love you like I love to laugh

Until it hurts my face

I love you like I love to drive

With no real destination

I love you like I love the thrill

Of pure infatuation

But most of all I love you like

I love a cherished friend

Who holds me tight, dries my tears

And loves me to the end

My heart continues to only be yours

Always

Love, Your Edward

One Love I Never Want To Part

Just three little words
Don't seem like enough
For someone whose smile
Always brightened my day
Whose touch could make me forget
The rest of the world

They don't seem like enough darlin
For someone who was always there
To celebrate with me
When everything went our way
And to hold hands
When the whole world
Seemed to fall apart

But even though I love you
Can't express the depth
Of my feelings for you
I hope you know what's in my heart
Because loving you, Megels
Means more to me
Than anything in the world
And it always will

If there's one face I want to see
So beautiful, so true
One smile that makes a difference
To everything I do

If there's one touch I long to feel
One voice I long to hear
Whenever I am happy
Or just needing someone near

If there's one joy, one love
From which I never want to part
It's you, Megels, my very special love
My world, my life, my heart

Missing you
Missing that home feeling
Missing your heart

Always

Love, Your Edward

Our Two Hearts Beating As One

The day you came into my life, Megels
Will be cherished always
An angel sent from heaven above
For my lonely heart to hold

My heart was no longer lonely
But instead
Filled with the wonder of a love
A love like I'd never known

When you first held on to me
It was magical
A touch no other but my soulmate could provide
Truly the passion needed no words

Your kiss on my lips
Is something I long for every day
With a single kiss
The intensity of your love was so incredibly clear

Your eyes melted me with emotion
Emotion so intense it was beyond belief
A caring and unconditional love
That shined so brightly from them

It made me shiver with excitement
For our life to come
Each day your smile filling my heart
With a joy like no other

I always promise to you
My unconditional love and devotion
For I would cherish each day
That God would give me with you

Our own little peace of heaven on earth
The weather bringing the cold weather you hate so much
Wrapped in a blanket warm by the heater
My thoughts swim around memories of you

Would you dance with me now darlin
Dance with me in life
Remembering when our love began
The day we discovered all of our shared interests

There is patience and understanding
We tried to be unselfish and kind
Though not a fairy-tale romance
No greater love would we find

Sharing dreams, passions, and desires
Building each other up when we fell
We'd learn to say I'm sorry
And I love you through it all

Our two hearts would beat as one
Cherishing what we had from above
So, Megels, would you dance with me
Dance me with love forever

Always

Love, Your Edward

A Painting of Passion and Admiration

Regret flows through the depths of my soul
With the strength of a flood
I have held these gates shut for too long
And though tormenting, they should not be stopped

The thought of your anguish
Even as I write to you now, Megels
Stops my heart cold
As well it should

What I would see in front of me
Was a painting of our love
Its most thoughtful brushstrokes
Mottled by hurried abstraction and inattention

A person who had not seen this masterpiece created
Might think it to be refuse and pass it by unknowingly
Letting be obscured the deep beauty of its many scenes
By layers of the tarnish of mistreatment

But as the painter
I see beyond the dark smears
To recall the hours that I attend to the details
And wonder how I could let it become so discolored

The painting that took me my life to create
Has lost its divinity in my careless treatment
And even if I were to refine it
I fear you would always see it as it is today

Today I paint a new masterpiece
One inspired by the muse of respect
A work that you can love through our old age
One that you will look to each day for inspiration

This one will take some time
As I want my brushstrokes to be carefully placed
I need to move steadily to ensure that this time
My art represents my dream

This is my opus
Don't judge me on my past works
As I have never before had so much skill and inspiration
And never before have I wanted to please you as I do today

With you as my muse
I will paint for you a lifetime
A portrait of devotion and friendship
A panorama of passion and admiration

All I ask is that you gaze upon it with an open heart
And you shall unquestionably love me again
For you are always there in my heart
Even when you aren't by my side

Always

Love, Your Edward

No Better Place To Be Than With You

Every morning would start beautifully
With the sound of your sweet voice, Megels
It's second best to actually embracing you
In my arms

Under the covers that protected us
From the chill that lied outside
Your melodic wake up laughter
Is second best to none

To the overwhelming smile I see in the morning
When I hold you in my arms
After spending another wonderful night with you
Hearing your I love you's over the phone

Always making me smile and hold the phone tighter
Second best to looking into your eyes with those words
And being able to deeply kiss you afterwards
Sending a chilling warmth throughout our bodies

But with you, you were always my number one
The closest person in the world to me
With you darlin, there was no second best
There was no one close to even being second or best

I hold you, alone, in the most intimate place in my heart
A place where I can feel you, still close, when you're far away
Where I can close my eyes and hear your voice
Listen to your laugh and feel your emotions

Please don't stop invading my dreams
Because second to your kisses
There's no better place I'd rather be than there with you
No better way to begin the day than with you

Always

Love, Your Edward
