Shades of You

                                                     Shades of You.

You are now, an inseparable part of me

With you I forever and ever want to be

For without you, I am like the dead leaf without the tree

And the forlorn shore without the sea.

I crave for you like the desert craves the rain.

I need you always, in pleasure and in pain.

A glimpse of your face fills me with euphoria impossible to contain

And that makes me fall in love with you, all over again.

Your every word is like the tinkling of a wind chime,

It fills my heart with music, soft and sublime,

It makes me hum, makes me rhyme

And makes me wish that I could just slow Time.

You colour the black, you colour the grey,

You make my soul slowly swirl and sway,

A second is like a minute and a minute a day

That is what transpires, whenever you’re away.

I think of you in the morning, think of you in the eve

Think of the irresistible magic that you flawlessly weave.

You stole my heart away, my heart that I can’t retrieve,

All I can do is wish to God, that you never have to leave.
