When You Are Old

When You Are Old

On a special night when you are old and waiting for sleep
Remember me and this appointment you promised to keep

Take out these pages my love and slowly read
Of the days gone past and dream of the love we need

Feel the warmth of our embraces, see the looks of love in our eyes
Dream of the times we shared before the shadows come and the day dies

Surrender to passions throws beneath a blanket of stars aglow
Relive the surges of love's desires that we made grow
  
Give yourself again to those gladdest moments of lust and grace
Shared with this one man that loved every expression on your beautiful face

We two are bound by an unbreakable tether
To be lovers forever

As The Candle Light Burns

As The Candle Light Burns


Entwined together amid the sounds of the night
As the candle burns, making silhouettes in fire's light
Eye to eye, roaming fingers, and your sweetest kiss
No night could ever be any better than this

Lovers lost to the wonders of our poetic dream
Sharing wine with juicy berries and whipped cream
Two potent souls expressing their romantic powers
On and on we continue for hours and hours

Spurred into motion by the gleam in your eyes
Molten hearts with souls burning, that never lies
Part of this romantic dream as the candlelight burns
Soft soothing words and in our eyes desire still yearns


Taking us up to Heaven's shimmering Ivory towers
Where we spend all of love's happiest hours
Loving with all our heart, the greatest thing alive
As the candlelight burns showing love is to thrive

Captain Nemo,

Captain Nemo,

I; Captain Nemo from the silent darkness of the deep search for a rare lost treasure that vanished so very long ago.
Keenly my periscope surveys the shores, scanning intently as through the dark of the deep the Nautilus does silently go.
Always stealthy, yet when the magnificent Nautilus surfaces at any port, the grandest of entrances she makes there putting on such a show.`
The genius in building the wondrous Nautilus everyone can see, with the grandeur of the spectacular Nautilus giving them all such a glow.

From the elegant state rooms decorated in ornate gold, to the lavish meals in the opulent dinning room, then dancing in a room fit for a ball.
Around each corner some fantastic new way, enamoring everyone because the beautiful and stately, awe inspiring Nautilus captivated them all.
Yet even with such riches, I remain the sole commander of the deep, here all alone in my fortress of solitude, by my hand and mind's iron will.
Searching everywhere for that long ago vanished treasure, never content until my one true soul mate I may find... until...

That rarest of rare treasures stops always beckoning unto me from somewhere that I must find, “out there!”
Doomed to travel the world if that is what must be, combing the lands to seek out my soul mate so fair.
To ever so gently take her by her delicate hand on the most amazing trip of a lifetime there together at the bottom of the sea.
Sharing all this whole world has to offer with my soul mate, as Love abounds on the Nautilus living our lives wild and free.

Alas she has been nowhere to be found as yet, and I pursue my vigilant task to find my soul mate true.
No matter where you may be, that place I will some day find, and never relent on this daunting search until I find you.
Remaining ever stealthy hidden in the darkest keep, yet always hunting for you my soul mate with whom our love forever more stays.
Traveling in the wonders of the majestic Nautilus to all parts of the world, happily ever after unto the very last of our many days.
