Ok this poem is dedicated to the one person who made this poem possible, Janet. Thank for you for saying yes and agreeing to write this poem with me. I had a great such time learning from your genius.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Jan.
Hope your birthday wish came true.
=====================================
The Cherub rolls his pearl eyes waking her from the wardrobe door,
his angelic face brings sweet memories ...
drifting back into her mind like so many times before.
He is as a faded photograph from insomnia's edge blind,
she kisses him in the exposure of where all lost loves are born.
Her love for him eternal,
outlasting sands of time, winds of change, realms of space.
His touch ... her deliverance,
his kiss ... her saving grace.
Shadows drain his homogeneous flesh,
in low golden dove song he whispers,
"I love you, I will face GOD'S wrath, be Heaven's fallen disgrace
and deny an eternity for one moment in your bliss".
She exists only to know his skin against hers,
no sacrifice too great, now on bended knee ...
she gives herself in offering.
She is his fate, he is her destiny.
Like Heaven and Earth,
Moon and Sun,
this between them is meant to be.
Celestial bodies consolidate as a single soul,
their skin glistening in Heavenly passion fire
with bodies writhing hypnotised by Hades' desire.
Petals lay at their feet; the pistil erupts on the serpent's toll.  

Suns eclipse, stars align ...
love and lust kiss and entwine.
In between Heaven and Hell
... for just a taste, a soul to sell.
Equal to Earth and Sky, this desire they shall not deny.
Her mortal eyes pierce his wings of a dove,
The first snow of Calvary becomes washed with blood,
In ecstasy they radiate baptising pestilence with love.    
Ten million souls rejoice from purgatory's edge cleansed in a sensual flood.      
Ashes to ashes, Dust to dust,
Saints and sinners, Love or Lust.
Angels sing, Holy Empyrean pray,
Immersed in surrender...
Inhale as Heaven washes it all away.
Breath on breath slows to sigh,
she curls in his wings of tender embrace,
Traces of Heaven reflect in his pearl eyes.
From mortal coil they witness with grace
redemption for the masses as Golgotha rises from the ashes.

Baptized and bathed in sweet afterglow...
he gazes into her luna lashed eyes of jade.
Finding his own reflection ... their undying love on display,
enchanted by her beauty, his own soul he would now trade.
"Stay with me eternally, you seem too beautiful to be
though in my soul I believe this is real.
Once you but a forced dream to chase away the solitude.
What God or grace has granted me my angel? My true love no longer eludes".  
"By gift of fate or destiny,
this is now a Union of Bliss,
signed, sealed, and delivered ...
by love's sweet forgiving kiss.
In each other ... saving grace is finally found,
on a wing and prayer, this love will rise up ...
everlasting and heaven bound."

Bri,
thank you for this sweet dedication
and birthday gift.
Thank you for bringing out this side
of my writing...
thank you most of all for being such a good friend.
As always you give me more credit than due.
I guess we should just say we bring out the best in each other

 It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and you lose it all ...
And it's unnerving
(How one move just puts me by myself)
There you go just trusting someone else
(Now I know I put us both through hell) ...
I'm not sayin
That there was nothing wrong
(I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me)
And I'm not sayin
(We ever had the right to hold on)
(I just didn't wanna let you get away from me)

She says baby,
It's 3AM ... I must be lonely,
When she says baby,
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it.
