I Still Believe



how can I forget
the promise of a million smiles
and laughter rich with expectancy
of you and me,
dancing under these swaying palms
waiting here,
so patiently ...

time stepped aside
each time we met
so glorious!
the angels sighed with great relief
with stars bowed low in the lunar sky,
paving the way
for us inside
that place of joy reserved,
preserved, for only two

I'll be here, my love
my heart light flames
around your name,
oh! how can I explain this ecstasy
this great imagining,
except to say
I'm yours
for all time.
I'm waiting for you here
I still believe ...
