Young Love

Young and in love we were
The world felt at our feet
Love could conquer it all
Or so we thought.

Thirsty for adventure was your spirit
Filling the empty space within my gypsy soul
Your love and muse you called me
Yet you were the Eros to my Psyche
The air which filled my lungs
And my desire to live life.

I remember the days, I felt as if sanity had left me
Your calm and strong voice conquered every demon
Until I was free of their hold 
You were always like that, defiant and bold.

I cupped your face within my hands
To your innocence and strength, you were blind
I loved everything about your smile
You were pure antidote to any bile.

Our journey wasn't long
Yet your memory will live on
You are the light within dark nights
Guiding me along the way
For in your love, I trust
Even when death keeps us apart.

I decided to live with passion till I die
Till the day I once more can reach for your hand
An angel is what you were and who you are
And I am a gypsy thirsty for your shine.

Until the day we meet again twin soul
Until the day we can once again rejoice
Laughing at all the pain and the joy
Knowing it was all a dream
A lesson within our eternal journey
Nothing else...
Nothing more.
