1. Till The Day Of Death

To my lover,
I'll forever hold you close.
Our love is profound,
Exotic, sweet, and pure.
I will never let you go.

To know that you are near, never far,
I wander into my mental reality,
Where you glisten, shine, and sparkle.
My love for you is infinite;
We age together, no time to bury anyone.

Health walks with longevity,
No tears to cry, I smile forever.
No submarine to take you under-
Your hands are soft as you look at me.
I look up, seeing your smile,
You tell me you love me;
I tell you I love you too.

I blow a strong breath as I kiss your cheek.

My eyes now open to reality,
Mentally I awaken, I'm back.
Back to reality,
And suddenly, I enter the submarine.
The captain calls the crew.
I wave one last time.

I see you, you see me.
I rush to hug you one last time.
Your eyes deceive you.
You look down at me, smiling, and whisper,
"Till the day of death."
