Woman Rapt In Man

Dusk capes its magic eyes in luster of crimson
Falling fast, as my heart, to the edge of eternity
Many moments, I have spent along this hedge
Thinking of an onyx ledge, as paper falls

We dance in the fray of courage and fear
Moving closer, yet to watch these dreams disappear
Reminding me that honor is my rite, eternal glowing light
Still and solely, I love him

Do not deny his harsher side, nor pretend of cotton clouds
Life is not over and love is not ever put out
He is not my all and I am not his everything
But in the heartbeat of each moment, he is my every thought

The way I think of forever, and all I care for whether
Remembering my vision in the mirror of his eyes
Dusk sings to me warm and radiant prayer
Ever holding him near

Sunset in each eyelash fall
Of my wild imagination

~ As a true, non-co-dependent loving relationship should be.

You have such a lovely way of expressing love and relationships through your poetry.

Loving Light,

Goodness, a ton of thoughts, a bucket of
emotion....mixed together and presto!  You
do have a way of expressing thoughts.
