Everything

If in any way 
I could press a switch
And get my wish 

I would want other days 
Like the one just past 
I would want to make 
Certain moments last 

 The moment I turned the corner
 And saw you there 
 In the sun's glare
 
 The moment I got back 
 And I was not alone 
 The house was full of you 
 So It was a home.  

 If I could just stick me to you 
 With a kind of magic glue
 To make more moments for us two. 

 But you will set sail 
 Leaving me here 
 My courage will fail 
 When you are not near. 

 You are a poem 
 A work of art to me 
 You are smoky swirling colours 
 On a priceless tapestry
 You are a mystery 
 Impossible to unravel
 But essential to me   

 You are everything all in one
 All that is hot
 All that is cold 
 All that is young in me 
 All that is old 
 All that will capture me
 All that will set me free
