Surrender to me
Fall to passionate advance
It’s our destiny
Foretold in Heaven above
Ordained by the hand of God
We are meant to be
Soulmates, lovers, companions
‘Til the end of time

Why do I love thee, seems a foolish thing to say,
Perhaps it is all the little things you do most every day.
A tender smile, a loving glance that lets me know you care,
The giggle of a schoolgirl, the way you twirl your hair.
Maybe it’s the caring heart revealed when I was ill,
Giving without hesitation though you likely had your fill.
All these things no one would notice in their daily grind,
But I, yes I alone do notice they are etched into my mind.
All of these are things I see and with aging ears do hear,
Though it’s surely something deeper that brings this man to tears.
Something from the deepest recesses making two one whole,
Touching every fiber of being down to my mortal soul.
It’s something that I cannot see or put in simple words,
Futile it would be to even try sounding most absurd.
So why is it that I love thee, still a foolish thing to say,
It’s everything about you that that I never could betray.

Greatest friends were we
Long before we were lovers
Our bond has been strong
No more could I have ever asked
My companion, my beloved
Spoken from the heart–
Never have I loved you more
Than I do this day
Twenty five years espoused
Once two, we’ve lived long as one
One heart and one soul
Through time, traveling this path
Winding and rocky
We comfort each others pain
‘Til we taste our final kiss
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
I see you in my dreams;
Vivid as day, real as if this was reality.
When I awake, only then do I realize it was my mind
Playing a celluloid trick on my psyche.
Salty tears stain my cheeks,
Heart racing, body shuddering, I weep.
You were there, I was there–
I could see you,
Smell your fragrance,
Feel your touch, skin on skin–
Then you were gone, fading into oblivion.
With only a look and a smile over your alabaster shoulder;
You said nothing, your eyes said it all.
Tarnished by longing and sorrow;
Goodbye revealed in their parting glance
You vanished, I am alone.
Was this a dream or love reincarnate?
It matters not.
Either way–
I am lost without you.
