I’m not religious

To be infatuated

Truly, deeply attracted

Not for a short period of time

Not a fleeting attraction

But to be infatuated forever

Looking and longing

For eternity

When I look at you

I feel like the lord has blessed my life

We will stand together

Hold hands

Link arms

Tie loose ends

And stare the sun down

And look at its glory

Wonderful, joyful brightness

All for us

Let me stand beside you

And feel happy

And free

And feel tears glide down my skin

So pure and pale

While I hold your hand
