Touch of Eternity

Time suspends
Her walk of life
As I step into your eyes
Sinking without a trace
In the ocean of your love
A stolen second of your time
Is a touch of eternity

Life betrays
Her hold on truth
As I melt into your arms
Refined and purified
In the furnace of your love
To catch a breath of your life
Is a touch of eternity

Truth releases
Herself in time
As I lie under your kiss 
Speaking without a sound
In the volume of your love
The honest hold of your truth
Is a touch of eternity
