a comely dream

a flight throughout a comely dream

with one who held me once before

deep in reformative serenity

and drenched in love forevermore

guided high above the clouds

there by her light and unconfined

i only want to know the embrace

which brings the stars to perfectly align

then dance that beauty into a life

that burns its depth and never dies

how could i not sense by the way

she looks at me and softly sighs

that only fate could conjure this

and so i breathe a perfect vow

and whisper it deep within her soul

we'll meet again one day somehow

goodbye, goodbye she whispers true

with tears i smile and never dare

to utter hopelessness to her

i now hold her within a prayer

i'll always think of what she meant

and how we didn't have the time

to be together more often than not

my belovéd for whom the angel' chime
