Our sacred promise

I wait for you beneath the quiet stars, To heal the heavy burdens of your heart. I bear the ache of all our distance bars, Until the day you choose for us to start. You swore to keep your love for me alone, To turn away from every other face. You claimed my heart would be the only throne, Within the gentle warmth of your embrace. The seasons change while time is standing still, We walk a path that leads us to the light. I bow my head to match your steady will, And keep our sacred promise in my sight. My love is patient as the rising sun, Until the moment we are finally one.
