Let the World Fade

Nancy RODRIQUEZ 1965 (Temple)



              Let the World Fade
           By Nancy Rodriquez

The cards say we have done all of this before ,
There seems to be a portal or an open door ,
When we are together , we let the world fade ,
As we prepare in our forever , we no longer point a finger in blame ,
We write our own ending to this story , and no one else will receive the glory,
For it is in the authorship of hearts and souls ,
Dictated by the rhythm and rhyme we alone share ,
We have done the work on ourselves ,
Even when we paused , this love was never shelved ,
It was stored up for the divine time ,
Not wavering on a dime ,
Like treasure in a vault ,
Our love did not halt ,
It remains tested through the fire and flood ,
A price can not be placed on this great love ,
Joy captures these days ,
We nurture it in many ways ,
I am proud to be in this journey with you ,
I feel you know this to be true ,
Let’s chase our dreams in this life too.
