Consumed

how could it be
you could love someone like me
and yet it is true

drawn right to your love
the true magnet of my heart
attraction divine

soft as a feather
is how your love conquered me
knocked me off my feet

fill, breathe me in now
know air of loves sweetest breath
a breathless release

my life now starts over
now that you gave me your heart
your love has saved me

my mind relaxes
all quietens in your arms
I have found my home

the arms of your love
true place of deepest desire
a spark now is fire

"The heart is the toughest part of the body, tenderness is in the hands." Carolyn Forche'

Just when I think you have reached the apex of your talent you take it three steps farther
This is magnificent!
