Embraced
Embraced
In Loving Memory.
Shannon M. Darnell

As we lay next to each other,
not embraced, it breaks my heart.
not embraced, it breaks my heart.
We wake each morning day, holding
one another, but still never embraced.
one another, but still never embraced.
It tears at my being,
that I long to be with you.
that I long to be with you.
As my heart yearns and longs,
to touch your heart, to caress your mind,
and to embrace your soul.
to touch your heart, to caress your mind,
and to embrace your soul.
It's endless as to the touch of a flower.
I have searched the highs and lows,
the mountain's to the sea's,
and the sea's to the heavens above.
the mountain's to the sea's,
and the sea's to the heavens above.
And now, the embraceable has been found,
in a yearning heart like mine.
in a yearning heart like mine.
For the beauty that she shows,
the love that she shares,
the love that she shares,
is far beyond anything I have dreamed.
To this, I thank you for the embrace
that you have given to me,
that I have only dreamed to be.
that you have given to me,
that I have only dreamed to be.
