Beyond Ourselves We added another page tonight, I laid open my heart -- you shared the words I prayed to hear -- confirmation of a day born beyond ourselves. You whispered contentment, as I told you of a trace my hand longs to make. I breathed in your silence, as I made known the trail my lips yearn to follow -- a place where your flesh says ''woman'' and where my soul hears the past transformed into songs of light. We looked within our sanctuary, where touching you, is touching me. Holding our hands above the candle lit more then a year ago -- passion yet burns -- its flame blue with courage, its warmth green with life. Loving, it towers above the death of habit. Escalating through rings of distant clouds -- above the storms -- it breeds endearment, held by our faith. Robert Joseph ~enb~ |

Every woman on passions should reply to this one, it's incredibly romantic. Very, very nice. "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |
