Analysis of Purest Desire of Measure

Poetryzen 1984 (Phoenix Arizona)



The sun kisses the sky
The way I want to kiss you
...Forever
And my light will never fade
Even when we are far
And you should know
Even though it may
Not always be seen
My light is still shining
Off in the distance
And my heart, still
Only beats
For you
