...Forever...

When the sun rises above the horizon
bringing forth the day –
My heart whispers your name.
When the sun hovers proudly above the Earth
casting all sadness away –
My heart whispers your name.
When the sun sinks below the Earth’s edge
having painted its promise to return one day –
My heart whispers your name.

Like the blood flowing through my veins
You are a part of me –
Deeply ingrained in my heart.

And should the sun ever sink never to rise again
And your heart ceases to beat my name in refrain,
Then my heart will continue whispering its endless whisper – your name.

Like the flesh covering my body
You are a part of me –
Deeply ingrained in my heart.

…Forever…
