What would you do?

I have become eager for sunset
For night to fall,
when I can retire to my bedroom
To spend the dark hours with David
who makes my skin glow?
Forcing me to reach out for his touch
The feel of his face against my neck
He whispers, I cannot stay long.
His time is growing short
He must move on soon.
My heart breaks, I cannot lose him
I will leave my life to follow him
To spend time in his world
What would you do
to keep your perfect lover?
