Forever is now

Forever is Now
Mik Namlieh

Through the years I have run like a cloud in the sky,
Like a wind in the mind, like a smile on the sly,
Like a child through a field of the prairies at home,
From a star-stricken love that I bore all alone.

And the nights I spent dreaming were but nights in my mind
In the daylight, the sun-day, the hours behind
All the banter, pretending, and playing at reason
Unsuspecting the change with the turn of the season.

And your eyes and your smile and your voice that did render
Me prone to a lyrical, rumbling surrender,
To trust undesired, uncalled for, unknown
Shaking deeply, afraid that you’ll leave me alone.

Hold me tight as my lover, my disint’rested friend,
Pure and platonic with a passion unending,
And I’ll kiss you, your eyelids, your fingers, your brow,
Cause you’re my love forever, forever is now.

Beautifully written, I totally agree with nevadasky...
Very soft, whimsical and mesmorizing- this is
as I said, beautiful.
