Forever and More

won't you let me stay a while and gaze at all this loveliness I see?
before me in all it's raw wonder
careful not to make a sound
I won't harm the surroundings,
you can just sleep,
and lay there dreaming of maybe me
and you, as we step into the great unknown
full of potential, if we'll just believe
and receive ...

what if this time was the time we've always dreamed of?
carefree indulgence and whimsical forays
tender tap dancing
curiously,
open the window and unlock the doors
throw back the blinds and let me in ...

treasures await in the unexpected realm
scintillating pleasures extraordinaire,
why be bound by seasons and past pages
of unfulfilled promises and tears?
we'll take our time, we've got no where to run
why not enjoy this moment
this day,
this beginning of forever and more ...
