If you wanted to look deep into my soul,
It would open like a flower bursting into
The bloom of being, a river surging into
A sea of sparkling foam.
All for you.
Ready.
Waiting, longing to inhale that elusive
Breath of a thousand miracles I see
shimmering in your velvet eyes.

I want to look deep into your soul,
See its petals unfurl before me
As you bloom once more, pain forgotten,
Dancing in the sparkling foam of
Our passion sea.
All for us.
Together.
No more waiting, every breath laden
With the miracle of love that I feel
Could grow between you and me.

Do you feel it too?
Can it ever be?
Or will the river run dry and leave me in
A desert of burnt blossoms...
