Where I Pray My soul, a vessel -- your life, fragrant oil. Our Love, a gold pearl slowly descending through the balm. Yes, that's our world -- hidden from the sight of man. A place where your voice, causes gold to shimmer in greater brilliance. And a place where I pray, my eyes sunk deep in the altar of your breast -- my petitions made to the sounding of your heart.
