Have your fingers tenderly touched my face today,

From the edge of the cliff I’ve stood trying to find my way,

Remember me I implore,

Do you remember each line upon my face that came unknown,

I am encased the age that is a reminder of how time has flown,

A beautiful angel at heaven’s door,

Has desire set the tone of your vocal chords response to me,

Or has desire come to rest upon a branch of the cliff’s edge tree,

Doesn’t anything of me remain,

Do I remain in your mind’s eye as the dark haired boy you knew,

Have I been enveloped by times passage as our lifeline’s flew,

Beautiful should be your name,

Each land I’ve crossed be it by toil of war or of business too,

Though unseen by the world you were always within my view,

Don’t be afraid of what remains,

Don’t fear the bandits of youth if love dwells it means nothing,

Transfixed within my soul forever is the love my heart will bring,

You are beautiful, my fire remains,

Put your face to touch upon my face and look deep into my eyes,

Do you see cause to pause or do you see love and all it implies,

Love is within forever I am here,

Forever I am here to be yours as the days pass one by one,

Is there reason to fan the flames of desire or should it be done,

You are beautiful from afar or near,

Upon completion of my journey will my reward be of loving you,

Unless I am given pleasure of you then my time should be through,

I’m desperate in need of you,

Desperately we cry out to our youth to remain within our hearts desire,

Uncertainties fall at the wayside when flames of desire are in the fire,

Others see you are beautiful too,

One day near I fear awakening will come to but one with age,

The cold flesh upon our spouse’s face will need no temperature gauge,

A tear will fall to become regret,

When last you kissed their lips was it the kiss of last goodbye,

Did your heart fill with loneliness you knew would come as you cry,

Beautiful girl I will never forget,

Where my parents are I will be in wait of you after I’m placed to rest,

At heaven’s door I will stand in wait of my angel in a Falcon upon the crest,

Remember me I implore,

Remember when we were eighty that seventy felt as if nothing was wrong,

Full circle came so quickly, don’t let age be where age doesn’t belong,

More beautiful than before,

Remember me I beg of you now don’t let storms wear away the base,

Doesn’t anything of me remain that makes you want to love me anyplace,

Don’t be afraid of what remains within your passion if any remains for me,

Love is within forever,  I am here forever to hold you and if needed to plea,

I’m desperate in need of you, before timbers fall let sounds of allure be heard,

A tear will fall to become regret unless each ounce of love flourished in word,

Remember me I implore, allow passions flow no matter of your health or how old,

Remember me I implore, if too late one final kiss of goodbye while in your hold.
