I Want You to Know...

You and I have feasted on the golden apples of the sun,
And sailed on wild uncharted seas when the way was done.

Between two heartbeats we have known a long eternity of joy;
We’ve soared above the fields of space, the stars our toys.

I give my heart and gain my soul. I’m only free when I am bound;
Within the shelter of your arms I’m lost and found.

You and I have drunk the moon, and time nor death cannot subdue
The part of you that lives in me, nor me in you.

That part of me in you will see the kestrel quartering the sky,
The endless play of night and day caught in your eyes.

That part of you in me will serve to ease the breaking of my heart,
And guide me safely through the night when we must part.
