YOU ARE MY FOREVER

I will love you or die 
Opportunity knocks but once
My heart has heard the sound of love
And I will not allow age to stand in the way

Be silent skeptics hush your noise 
My emotions are wide awake 
My eyes have seen love for the first time 
And my heart is not afraid

You have tried and failed 
Beauty was in your arms 
And you were blind to her splendor 
For your heart was unable to love 

I will take her and love her
My ear will listen my heart will understand 
Her voice will be my command 
And her desire will be my choice

The breach has been broken 
And like a flood my love has flooded her heart
So flee like the dust in the wind
For your time has expired
And I am the new day of her forever.
