Ink & Shadows: The Words of Osiris j Reapor

And here you are again, resting your back against me

Comfortable in my embrace, just how things used to be.

On top of a mountain, in a quiet place, out of the way

Where few are bound to tread, off any trail, is where I stay.

We climbed up here, in days that have long since past

And here is where we found each other, and built a love to last.

Though that youth is far behind us, your beauty stays the same

Your black hair has wisps of grey now, but that’s the only thing to change.

Your soft lips, still look as tender, your eyes still look as bright

Your voice still sounds as lovely, as it did our wedding night.

You tell me all that’s happened, since the last time you were here

You tell me you still love me, and miss me with every tear.

And here you are again, resting your back against me like you did

Once upon a time, long ago, when I lived.
