My One

My love, you know how I see you, cherish you
My lover, you know how you excite me in every way
My light, you know how you shine to me, brighten me
My life, you are the only one I care to, desire to share it with

My love, a winter storm of words blew cold, chilled my heart
My lover, slowly taken from me with slowly fading clouds
My light, fading quickly in the western sky
My life, grey and gloomy with no sign of spring

My love, you know how I love the joy of Christmas
My lover, your gift shall be placed away, never opened
My light, shone so brilliantly through my hidden loss
My life, a new path without you to walk beside me

My love, I struck out deeply from within my own despair
My lover, I fear we shall never share a moment again
My light, I know it shall never be burn so bright again
My life, I shall demand that no other be let in again
