Your soft brunette hair glistens
as the rays of the afternoon sun dance brilliantly
throughout each and every strand.
Your deep brown eyes sparkle
with the intensity of a raging fire.

As our eyes meet,
I look deep inside and I am swept away
by the tender loving heart,
the pure unconditional love
and the burning embers of heavenly passion
locked away inside the realms of your lonely heart.

I strive to find the words
that unlock the secret passage,
so I might experience the hidden emotions
trapped within the sanctuary of your soul.

Emotions waiting to burst forth,
while two hearts join as one
if only for a moment...
in the hourglass of time.
