i'll write things about you every night til i die

Each night, as stars surge,

I put pen to paper, thoughts to purge.

Your essence recorded, line by line,

An accordant ritual, yours and mine.

Morning coffees, steam rising high,

Painting each other with adoring eye.

Stolen kisses, sweet and light,

Memories rack up as I write.

Walking beaches, sand between toes,

Our footprints drop out of sight as the tide flows.

Howbeit here on paper, they remain,

A sanguine testament to joy and pain.

Rainy days spent reading books,

Knowing glances, scrupulous looks.

The way you hum your favorite tune,

I'll pen it all beneath the shepherding moon.

Years may pass, our hair will turn gray,

Except these words won't fadeaway.

Each night I'll write, come what may,

Until my final earthly day.

Moments of laughter over inside jokes,

The way you smell of pine and oak.

I'll write things about you every night til I die,

Upkeeping moments as they fly by.

Our quiet dinners, candlelight glow,

The aplomb in your eyes when your garden grows.

Each precious detail, I'll testify,

Writing things about you every night til I die.

And when at last my time draws nigh,

My final words will be my cry:

"I wrote of you til my last sigh,

Loving you every night til I die."
