You are Beautiful
Even Now

After all is said and done
I think a while aloud

The translucence of your skin
Lightly touch your cheeks

The beauty of forever
Souls like ribbon, dancers, glue

The smile on your sleeping face
Silent as a prayer, Angel

Like champagne, bubbles to the top
A laugh just beneath the surface

I hold you
Even Now

Alone in crowded elevators
To the top, among the sleeping stars

Alone among the phantom planets
The tides a distant memory

Together drinking sweet surrender
Embrace in subtle ecstacy

Falling further now than ever
Falling for eternity
