Climbing Mountains

\nShe smiles with the eyes of an angel at play
\nAnd laughs like a fresh April breeze;
\nShe whispers my name and I’m floating away
\nAdrift on the warm summer seas,
\nHer fingertips trace every line of my soul,
\nA moment alone and I’m losing control.<\/p>\n
We talk about travel, the books she has read,
\nThe state of the world and his wife;
\nAnd though I attend to each word that she’s said
\nI dream of a far sweeter life —
\nWhere she’s in my arms, in my bed every night
\nAnd sorrows of parting are far out of sight.<\/p>\n
Her lips are like sips of a fine vintage wine,
\nI’m drunk on the sound of her voice,
\nWe dance through a maze of perplexing design,
\nEach step is a moment of choice.
\nShe follows my lead, though she’s guiding me too,
\nRebuilding together the worlds we once knew.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow’s the future, the past wears a veil,
\nToday may be all there can be.
\nOur dreams conjure mountains our hearts long to scale,
\nTo views only our eyes will see.
\nAs hand over hand she ascends to the skies
\nAnd fathom by fathom I drown in her eyes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
