I give to you my throbbing
saturated with life itself
engorged with visions of you
I know it sounds temerarious
but I crave you more and more each day
I need you in my playpen
'cause I'm in it for whatever comes tomorrow
I know . . . I know . . .
my exuberance astounds even myself
as things stand in limbo
except our actions
white hot and searing
I live with the fiery love I give
I'm as true to my decision of our yesterdays
holding onto it sempiternal
