∞
You have my word
for Always
No matter what
to forevermore remain
∞
When creatures stir
in the hallways
Not to stop
less every devilment be slain
∞
This will be my promise
to the grave
This will be my honour
for the horrors you have faced
∞
Life and some way longer
to remain
Forevermore a scholar
of corroborating faith
∞
Tears of the Madonna
in your veins
Weeping an infinity
of dignity and grace
∞
Fittingly you flit through
light and shade
Peeking through the blinds
to another time and place
∞
Whispering affinity
to play
Skipping to the mirror
where we’re visibly the same
∞
Nigh on inexplicably
Sincere
True Real Clear
unequivocally brave
∞
Nevermore defeat
be entertained
Never mourned the years
of necessitated pain
∞
Fearless in the way
you overcame
Peerless in the courage
which encouraged love to reign
∞
Nourishing
on flourishing terrain
Stunning in the sun
and as becoming in the rain
∞
Tears of the Madonna
in your veins
Weeping an infinity
of dignity and grace
∞
You have my word
for Always
No matter what
to forevermore remain
∞
When creatures stir
in the hallways
Not to stop
less every devilment be slain
∞
This will be my promise
to the grave
This will be my honour
for the horrors you have faced
∞
Life and some way longer
to remain
Riddling tomorrows
out of yesterday’s refrain
∞
It would be my honour
To remain
∞
Take this sacred promise
To the grave
∞
Forevermore a scholar
to the faith
∞
That in your eyes
the tide will rise again
∞
