you're my one and only
my wish upon a falling star
shine so bright
like the twinkle in your eye
that beckons to me like a lighthouse

and i come, inextricably pulled
in and in and in to you
to crash upon your shore like
sea waves on rocky crags
and cling to you like you're the last thread of hope

and hope i do
that i'm fit and worthy and not found wanting
that you won't see all the doubt in my heart
but if you do
you'll lift me up despite them and make me shine

my heart sings when i hear your voice
as though you're one violin and i'm the other
and when you strike a note
it resonates in me
and fills me with light

i'm flooded with light everytime you're near
like i'm a room full of mirrors reflecting your brilliance
bouncing it back and forth until i burst with it
glowing and crying and laughing
kneeling before you and offering you myself

myself and all i have and i pray that it's enough
because all that is mine is yours
all that's mine and more
cause i'll climb to the highest mountains for you
to catch a falling star

for you to wish on
and i'll pick every dandelion for you
and find you pretty stones for luck
cause babe i don't need them
i'll just make wishes on your eyes

and i'll whisper sweet promises against your lips
while i'm worshiping at the alter
that is your skin on mine
our legs intertwined
rising on the tides of desire

until we can see heaven
and together we will walk
hand on hand through the pearly gates
and sleep on clouds together
with your head on my shoulder, my arms around you

and we'll wake when the sun rises
to write poems in each other's eyes
hymns to the soul baring grace
of the beauty in your face
when your lips meet mine

ehh, not great, but it's late (and i'm rhyming) so it'll have to do. :) for you, sweetling, as always.
