I'll tear the stars
from the midnight sky
and place them
(with tender,
loving care)
into the galaxies of your eyes
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be allowed
to drown within your gaze.
I'll pull the sun
from the morning
and ignite it
(without matches
or fires,
unless you count the fires
of our love)
between the stretch of your lips
and the spaces of your dimples
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be given the chance
to tumble shins-over-chin for your smile.
I'll take the wind
from the trembling leaves
and breathe it
(just as if
you're in need of CPR)
through your mouth
and into your lungs
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be granted the blessing
of being the only one
to become breathless from your kiss.
I'll steal the whispers
from the melodies of sunset
and paste them
(with as much hope
and devotion
as I possibly can)
in the silences
we hold each other in
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be able
to listen to your gentle words
float across my neck.
I'll tease the pulse
from the footsteps slapping concrete
and play it
(like childhood games
and records on the stereo)
in your bloodstream
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be handed the opportunity
to lean against your chest
and feel our heartbeats
become one.
I'll pour the glow
from tomorrow's possibilities
into your hands
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be the only heart you hold,
because I'd give up the world
in a minute
if I thought time could reach a standstill
and let me stay in pause with you.
I'll toss the feathers
from the wings upon my shoulders
into the wind
if you'll promise me
that I'll forever and foralways
be allowed to walk with you,
because you're the only fairytale
I've ever wished to be in
and I'll give up my heart
before I'd let go of you.
And I'll place myself
within your arms
if you'll promise
to forever and foralways
keep ahold of me,
because I love you
more than love itself,
and I'm never
going to let my heart
lose you.
Promise me forever,
love...
anything less
would be bound to break me.
