Long Ago and Far Away

Long ago and far away lives the ghost of we,
A joyful laugh, a warm embrace, a faded memory.
Long ago and far away lives a dream of us two,
Where I waited daily with dinner made for you.

Long ago and far away my heart merged with yours,
Before the dreaded day when you then became hers.
Long ago and far away I waited lonely all alone,
Sitting all by myself staring at the silent phone.

Long ago and far away the destiny of us has died,
Where once a golden future ended as they cried.

Suddenly I Realize

Suddenly I realize the passion in your embrace,
Engulfing me in paradise in my favorite place.
The gleam in your eyes reflecting love divine,
The warmth of our heart knowing all will be fine.

Suddenly I realize the loyalty of my one true love,
Angelic wings that protect with strength from above.
A soft voice that assures me when life throws me curves,
A gentle presence that teaches me the ducks and swerves.

Suddenly I realize the divine being dropped in my lap,
When synchronicity brings to me a benevolent life map.
And a pure soul that ignites our love from simple lust,
And I know our love is built around patience and trust.
