in the candlelight my vision dims-- a shadow by the window youve become. turning to see me you hold out your hand, yet i am blinded to all-- but your eyes. your eyes have whispered softly, in the night. you take my hand. gently you touch your lips to mine-- i become lost for a million moments. the candle dies... pure blindness overcomes me-- yet i believe in you; your breath is life caressing my skin. your presence a warmth engulfing me. shadows brush against my body, and slowly i close my eyes. tasting the fire, it becomes mine, seeping into my soul. it dwells in me-- and i give back to you what is yours. the fire spoke to me through your eyes, pulling me out of darkness; igniting my sight. only the candlelight dies... -dgvarner < !signature--> theres no such thing as a failure who keeps trying--coasting to the bottom is the only disgrace. -j popper [This message has been edited by dgvarner (edited 09-25-2000).] |

Dee how absolutly beautifull, always your work is astounding, this is pure and breathtaking. You knew I'd love this I know, and do I. If there was an olympic games for poetry, you'd be scooping them up by the arm load, and you'd deserve every single one. Take care, Bubbles  |
