My Cross To Bear
I gaze upon your beauty across the fire
 A sight so great, I'll never tire
 From the soft glow of your velvet skin
 To expressive eyes that reel me in
 I long to hold you in my arms
 Hear the laugh that enchants and charms
 But alas my yearnings are for naught
 For though you're whom my heart has sought
 Your heart belongs here, the the Earth and Sky
 To the critters that crawl and the birds that fly
 You crave the warmth of the Earth's embrace
 The love of freedom clearly on your face
 I couldn't bear to cage the free- spirit that you are
 Couldn't hide from you the moon and stars 
 So I'll adopt the pain of the freedom you lose
 If you ever love me as I love you
