Could I ever leave you? Never. For <br />you are the air the fills me with the <br />breath of life and the energy that fuels <br />each day. <br /> <br />You are my laughter, my joy, <br />my reason for being. You are my hope, <br />my warmth, on a cold winters night, and <br />the flowers that bloom in my heart. <br /> <br />You are my friend, my love...my life. <br />You are the liquid of life under a deserts <br />sun; my port in a storm and without you <br />there is but a barren wasteland of <br />nothingness, where laughter has died <br />and darkness and bitter howling winds are forever. <br /> <br />Could I ever leave you. Not for all <br />eternity and one day thereafter, if <br />there be such a time. <br /> <br />© Joe Fazio<br /><br />(brief renderings) Joe Fazio<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-could-you-ask-such-a-question/
