A fire burns as lovers sleep during spring rain beneath the earth In the seas of night songs voice through silence, in strides along the edges of darkness that speak softly My lips dry your tears, as they speak your soft words, to a heart that walks through you when you are alone Bare your thirst, drink of the waters in passion weeping your shadows in arms of tired eyes ready to shut Of a heart you sleep in constant dreams deeper to a journey yet taken Beside you I lay , in tributes of the present, hanging your portrait stretched upon the earth as my canvas (as) I wear your m a s k of life, Together Close We sleep |

Greeneyes, What tenderness spoken here...a comfort, a release, an almost intoxicating calm. I enjoyed this so much. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
