if only it were you and i
the only two upon this earth
standing beneath the jealous sky
warmed with sun’s golden burst
would you take me into your arms
wrapped within your warrior’s cloak
and kiss me as if no morrow comes
and only today is spoken?

drink of me as if a wine
from lips of rose soft petal
ease the bitter of sorrow’s brine
and taste of healing nectar
hold me close as if to weld
into one we shall be woven
the whole of me shall be beheld
from within your soul sweet haven

lay with me upon summer’s lea
this soft green bed of Eden
take me now down passion’s way
gifting bliss’ sweet found freedom
soar with me to the heights above
as if of celestial flight bidden
for none do move me as you, my love
within our self made heaven

s.a.t.
