Forever Together

I hope as the time slips away,
quick as the sun setting at the end of each day,
you can smile as you think of me again.
I hope you could say
'I honestly love her'
as you end your day.
Maybe the memories of me would give strength to fight it,
to push back on the hands of time,
to keep me in sight.
Because if I'm not with you at the end of this night,
I'll try to come save you by the new morning light.
Hold you close and we'll push time's hands together.
Keep you safe with me, always and forever.
Never finding anything we couldn't handle.
Drawing each other in, like a moth and a candle.
Your golden glory shimmering on,
never fading.
My silver glow,
unreliable as it comes and goes.
But together I would know,
as I always do,
that as long as I'm with you I'm safe,
no danger lurking.
I would stay until I could stay no more,
and even then I would linger by your door.
As I would leave,
with despair sure to follow,
I would smile and forget the pesky hands of time.
Have them put me back to where I felt most sublime.
I'd stay wrapped up in your arms until the end of all time.
