Lantern

LANTERN

Your love is like a lantern
That guides me to your door;
Illuminating softly,
When the world seems unsure.

In my life's bleakest times,
You never turn away;
But burn ever brighter,
And drive out the shadowy grey.

When my dreams seem as lost
As a pale white unicorn,

You help me to believe again,
Not unlike a child just born.

All my beautiful memories
Are between you and me;
The nights spent beside you,
Loving so tenderly.

Every sweet smile or touch
Tears the pain apart;
Your love is like a lantern,
And it shines bright in my heart.
