Forever Here To Stay

I place my kisses on the wind in hopes they will find you,
Through thickly wooded dale and broadly open sea,
When they find you, you will know, that they came from me,
As they gently caress your lips, know my heart be true;
And never will I love another true as I love you.

There’s a star I know you see when looking out at night,
I reach my hand out to it hoping your hand touches mine,
Transcending the known universe to share a place and time,
And hold you in my arms until the early morning light,
Knowing our love’s meant to be and always shall be right.

Stay well my love as you travel through your journey’s way,
Please let my spirit’s presence guard you from unknown foe,
And give you strength to carry on wherever you may go,
Always keeping you from harm throughout your distant days,
Until you come back to me love, forever here to stay.
