carpe diem

without the rapture of your sighs

our lives are just a compromise

within the solace of your kiss

remains my reason to exist

 

when you hold me i’m heaven bound

your kiss a coronation crown

at any time in any age

your beauty would be all the rage

 

i googled you and it is true

the whole world is in love with you

and i’m the envy of them all

as every kiss leaves me enthralled

 

embrace and kiss and reminisce

nothing can thrill me more than this

unfolding freedom of our love

you’re all that i am dreaming of

seize the moment and the day

and kiss me till the stars all fade
