softly gently

[scribus]

softly now
gently now
take my eyes
take my hands
but leave the wind
the orange trees
their blossoms sweet
with memories
our secrets lay
beneath the soil
below the roots
where angels toil
the fallen ones
such shaded past
they hid our lust
until the last
you promised love
and i did too
then in mere days
your life was through
but secrets stay
safe in that place
still in my dreams
i see your face
and feel your touch
gently now
i need you so
speak softly now
upon the wind
within the rain
and calm my fears
and ease my pain
and just for now
come softly
come gently
my eyes
my hands
my sacrifice
to wash away
another night
another day
a testament
to your beauty
i offer now this song
upon that tender breeze
and listen for your voice
among the orange trees
softly is a love that can not die
gently is a love that can not die
for i refuse to accept this death
i refuse
because i can not accept this death
without breaking
and so softly i commit this prayer
and gently i profess my love
and most of all
i miss you baby boy
