Royal Purple Cliffs These regal cliffs, compliant eyes to follow you Diving into need that flows the slickened rocks; oblivion designed for two Summoning my strength, open arms become wings and rudder Open hearts surge stronger in the shudder All that is gentle and tender gives way in moans of midnight stutter Crimson tones, that split the waters, parted lips of soul surrender Molten, slim and liquid spaces melted to consume, embrace us Fall we must Passion steams in melding of crimson skies and midnight eyes Driving forth each jagged breadth in pure magnificence No, I cannot be patient; no, I have not control No, there is no sanity, no vanity…only arch and deep humanity Diving from the heights where you suspend my consciousness Longing to be fleet, as the coursing of rivers emptied stream Royal purple cliffs of sudden shifts claim calling to redeem And fall we must, into these granite depths serene Copyright Kkh 6/28/08 |

I am very fond of the analogy of love to "Diving from the heights where you suspend my consciousness... And fall(ing) into...granite depths serene" |

"Molten, slim and liquid spaces melted to consume, embrace us Fall we must" I'm always lost in the depth of your words TD such richness |
