UNDER ANOTHER SKY

My preoccupied poetess

Remembering our first life

You called out my name with love…

I heard you under another sky.

Oh my lovely Duchess

I the Duke of the Arctic

Do gently recall your soft skin…

I touched you under another sky.

Time brought us to an end

As we offered each other forever

And sealed it with a gentle brush…

I kissed you under another sky.

Did you hear me whisper?

“I love you, my lady.”

I saw you start and look my way…

I loved you under another sky

You sang and danced in moonlight

Swaying with the breeze

My phantom finger on you cheek…

I wanted you under another sky.

I was held under the darkness

Of a water painted wind

The Stygian waters threatening…

I needed you under another sky.

I saw you wish upon a star

And dream of finding me again

Your tears brought me to my knees…

I watched you under another sky.

Through the centuries I have search

And waited for you to show

We are together once again…

I’ll love you under another sky.
