I Am Love

I remember the way you feel,
the way you smell,
the way you taste;
from moment to moment
I remember these things.
I am your spirit,
your heart,
the soul of your life;
in me you live
in ways you've never known.
Touching you
sets me tingling with desire,
the smell of your hair,
your skin,
the fragrance around you
enraptures my soul;
tasting your lips
is life itself.
I live for you,
of you,
in you;
Make of me,
a place to live,
to love,
to hide,
to cry and smile.
Be of me,
in me,
for me,
and I will ever be
an open door;
I am the spirit
of all you desire;
I am your dreams,
and all for which you live…
I am love.
