The Constant

Meeting with you is like a light

giving beauty in the evening's hour

bringing dreams into being

for when I am yours I am who I was supposed to be

all this life

Do not leave me now

for if you would my world will be without god

How I long to see you tonight

and all I can do is speak to the stars

to tell you that I am waiting

kissing the sky

pulsing my body into the night's velvet touch

see me arising into your arms

In Our Other Lives

If you would come now

I would kiss you

stroke your hair, gaze at you

surrender like liquid as you put your mouth on my breast

and fingers soft, then like heat rose up inside me

I would open my mouth to receive the communion of you

put my lips around your hardness

gasp as you pushed into me

awakening sacredness

I would move my mouth towards yours

as you held my hair, kissing me over and over

I would pray as you put your divinity at the beginning of me

entering

with your still, hot breath held a fraction from my face

and after, like a kitten in your arms, as we lay

together

I would be this forever

and in our other world

in our other lives

this is what we are

The Visit

He said I should have stayed the night

and how can I say that I wanted to but was scared

for my love is so strong how can I leave again if I stay

and does any of this make sense

how can love make one want to be absent

dont you know I just want to be in your arms

yes, you know

and we continue with our seasons

the sun of our returns always so majestic
