You are a beautiful person,
I hope you life will be as lovely as you are,
have only peace and contentment
and all that's good in life.
We may never walk together
the tangled web of dreams,
but forever you'll go with me in my heart,
to the ends of all hope.
I have wished for one such as you
and now you're here we must remain apart,
you are the light of my day,
to the night of eternal dark.
You are the love in my lonely tired heart,
though I may pass through storms and sorrow,
your memory carries me on,
into a sunny new tomorrow.
I love you as only those who lose can do,
this is my life to rage against a world's disdain,
you could have my love any time,
anywhere in all this confusion,
but your heart lies elsewhere.
Now the seconds tick away my life as I dream of you,
I felt the magic of your sensation surround me,
in a single moment of all tenderness.
Perhaps a thousand distant years from now I'll find you again,
as our souls go winging down centuries of love,
we become one in the perfection of bliss and peace.
You are a beautiful person,
I hope your life will be as lovely as you are
and you'll never be as I always am,
alone tonight.
Richard Allen Beevor
