Dancing in the Rain

Love conquers All

"The only person I had to look up to growing up, was always looking down on everyone else... and putting me down at every corner I turned." 

There is a woman that lives in a far away land, 

I have had her in my dreams with both of us together... hand in hand.

In my dreams she wears a white dress and a beautiful smile, 

I long to her close to me for a long while.

She has so much life and spirit inside of her as I gaze in to her beautiful brown eyes, 

as I woke from my dream, this beautiful woman is my destiny is what I realize.

As I woke I know that I knew her name, and I wondered how she could ever love  a man so covered and filled with shame.

I had never fell in love from afar, oh how every day I would wonder how you are, what you were doing, or what was on your mind.

I struggled with ways of telling you just how often I had wanted to leave this awful world so far behind.

Even tough there where thousands of miles that kept us apart, 

you were constantly on my mind and embedded with love... deep within my heart. 

I asked you to come and make memories for all the rest of our days, you agreed happily without any delays, almost 3 years and 3 months together and your smile blocks out even the sun`s rays.

There are no words that exist for what I feel for you my beautiful Eden, thank you for standing beside me even though I had times where my mind was broken and beaten. 

Threw you I have learned what it means to have been loved and to love, you are nothing less to me than a gift from heaven above,

Threw the nightmares I`ve lived throughout my life, 

you have become the light that shines among the darkness my heavenly wife.

I have lived my entire life fearless of death... but now I have become horrified of never together sharing another breath. 

I want you to know that I would live a thousand lives in torture and pain, 

just to be able to have one more dance with you in the rain.
