Tranquillus

Is eternity too long 
To love you as I do ?
Can our hearts blend together
In ethereal blue ?

Let the red of passion 
Flame in blue eternal mist
And the heat of love's desire
Be sealed in a kiss

For the flame a kiss 'tis true
Consumes one endlessly
And eyes pierce our very soul
Of both me and you

To submerge one's soul in the other
We find ourselves anew
Eternity continues
Red flame, ethereal blue

Pure golden adoration
Crowns this love divine
A tribute to eternal love
Forever yours and mine
