Snow On Silk

Snow on Silk

Love skips through the day until my hand touches your cheek

It is soft like snow on silk

I never want to miss a day that I am close to you

Mediocrity always knocking at the door, an unwanted host

Please let me partake of the most precious gift you are

Let me not miss a minute in your arms

What’s precious gets lost in the dreams of ourselves

I am here to remember that life is fleeting and a moment with you is eternal

My life has turned a page and I am aghast at all that has been secret

You stepped in through the window and touched my cheek

I am forever in your depth,

For you have turned the page and I see your face, soft like snow on silk.
