To have and to hold

To miss you
while you're still in embrace
To live you while
I'm still glowing in your grace
To hold you while death
cheats a gaze
To feel love before
I run out of days
To run with life
with heart held above my head
To swim and fly
while the sky dissolves in this tear
To run and hide
before the dream catcher binges on my fear
To cry before longing becomes reality
and parting pain
To cruise with you in
the hunger for insanity
and for once
close eyes to all logics inane
To dance with you a
little dance of curiosity
To sing a little hopeful song
in the moments lasting cheer

To die a few deaths,
before days run out; ablaze
To hold you like a memory
out of sight yet a thing to flout
like a child happy in the nonchalant of ways ...
