Ours was such a delicious risk.My being abruptly and altogetherEcstatic and be-stilled.

A hallowed frequency withinThat, even in your darkest hour,You can always turn to.

The smiles of ancient soulsThat bless this,Our space to live and learnAnd urge us on to shine again_

I am just like you,Destined to play my part.And leave,In the nature of my departure at least,Some kind of sweet message behindIn the fathomless pattern I make.

I knew such a woman once,She gave me everything.Her love like a soft riot singing,She knew how to shine.

Sacred space in whichTo distil, like amber,The best of your love.

There can be no law of nature, no science,No aberrant infliction of human willThat unchained the soul cannot conquer,Simply sweep away, should it chose to.

Mislaid flame of tender emotionsRekindled.Together we live to the point of tears,I wouldn__ want it any other way.
