Gently In My Arms

 

As I hold you to my soul

I feel your breath fill your being

It invades your every corner

And brings you gently in my arms.

 

This breath you take so sweetly

Is like my love for you

It penetrates my very existence

As I rock you gently in my arms

 

The past is gone, the present stopped,

The future a mere glimpse of what may be.

This moment in time erases all else

As hold you gently in my arms.

 

So forgive the hurt I have caused

In my futile effort to deny you.

Forgive the pain I have inflicted,

And release yourself gently in my arms.

 

For all the others who've touched our lives,

For pleasure or pain or indifference,

There will be no connection as deep as this,

As I love you gently in my arms.
