SULLIVAN : A LOVER

Folder: 
JOURNAL#1

teach me your language and I will introduce you to mine

because together I know the two of us should dine

we should love and let laughter ring through the air

we should be kissing with me running my fingers through your hair

you should be smiling and looking deep into my eyes

while I would be talking and making little heart felt sighs

the thought of you listening to me happy

is how it should be always be atleast the way it should be meant

there will be quiet times as you very well may have known

by then my love I could not further hide for by then it will have shown

all those long love filled nights on the terrace talking we shall be

by the lighted romantic pool side just you and me

you will take my hand in yours and we will take to the stairs

we'll shove the rest of the world from our love sick minds and forget all our cares

I'll be yours for the duration of tonight

and we'll be together for atleast the duration of

the coming fortnight

let us make love right here and now

I'll worship you with the whole of my entire being

forever and how

let's take this love as far as it can go

why, we'll show it off to all our friends   across the continent to and froe

and let us be friends why we  can be that too

just because I love you doesn't mean I can't be a friend to you too

we'll get playful together and have loads of fun

but whenever we do get together

I don't think we will get all that much done

that night you proposed I thought I should die

but my poor love filled heart could not tell a lie

loved you always that I have with all my might

since that evening on the balcony I saw you shadowed in the pale moon's light

sipping your drink and looking so distant

I knew you were the one so I had to be persistant

I said hello you turned and looked

I knew in  that very instant I was hooked

lucky for me single you were

your left ring finger was naked that I made sure

that very night we danced and held each other ever so close

your breathing was slightly heavy

your chest fell and rose

I loe you you said and in that instant I did believe

for I know a new kind of love with you that I can not deceive

and love it truly was when those church bells rang

we laughed and kissed danced and sang

here in our beloved home we will live forever

until death do us part or

until the end of never
