To talk to you,
Listen to you,
love you everyday.


And from that love I shall give,
That that always continues to live,
To let you know how I truly feel,
For every wound you've ever healed.

And under the everlasting cold december lights,
And under the everlasting stars so high,
Comes under the veil of gleaming winter lace,
The illumination of your eyes and face.

"I love you",
Is all I can say,
For lack of better term,
"Por Siempre."
