Can I keep my moments with me?
The ephemeral bliss prolonged
etched into my being, forever
Intact in my mind, treasured in my soul
Can I keep my moments with me?
The low sun crossing the horizon
sky bursting with life in sweet song
holding you, who lights my own sky
Can I keep my moments with me?
The soft light tracing your face as I
cradle you, dreaming near the dawn
watching over the shadows for you
Can I keep my moments with me?
One passion, divided across miles
closer when further, alone together
savoring the pain, bittersweet in twilight
Can I keep my moments with me?
Eyes whispering words unsaid
warm and soft lips at every tempo
holding one another, loving one another
Can I keep these moments with me,
keep her beauty, her smile, her soul?
My moments keep you always with me;
and never could I be, without you
