          And the stars
          still shine -
          Even when I close my eyes.


               Perhaps.


          Watch me tonight
          as I sleep,
          and tell me -
          What do you see?


          And the moon
          still shines -
          Even as I close my eyes.


          My blood is pulled
          as a tide.
          I rise with it.


          And the sun
          still shines -
          Even as I close my eyes.


          I know,
          I melt from its touch.


          And my love for you
          still shines -
          Even as I close my eyes.


          You
          are the stars,
          the moon,
          my sun.


          I close my eyes.

Even when
I close my eyes
the light that was
   you
      burns
against my lids.

Aaaaahhh... the breath of God surely flows through you and your fingers.  This is so beautiful; so powerful and delicate, filled with and laced with divine love... so much I could say... words just don't seem to exist to describe such love and beauty.

Thank you...

Love,
