Especially in the quiet of remember
My mind reaches for the firelight
In a state of heightened omission
That tugs the soul tight
Infinite, the moments burn
Slipping further tandem turn
In the thrill of your favor
My mind hums caresses gently
In heartbeat that abides such esteem
The delicate strum of oblique
My ear to pectoral pulse
How wise the design to the touch
As soft and hard of corresponding coil
Breathes in heavy steam within the flame
And what becomes a pillow for my thoughts
Escapes my lungs in a lush and low light moan
Weary of the wait appeals auspicious tone
Turning me from top to bottom
Above and beneath the sensitive horizon
It is your eyes where I bathe in beauty
Without regret
