Felicity

I have longed for you my love as committed the tanager to sing my yearn to hear your voice as watercourses the mountains spring My joy leaps like the springbok at the thought of coming home the beating heart within my breast hungers for you alone When the snow and ice melts beneath the suns warming heat the earth without her radiance what I am do you complete The blossoms in the grasslands in errand paint their every hue when your loves my garment there is nothing I can't do The desert wind drives the sand exposes parchment there below nothing here satisfies my thirst till you I will fully know Lakes reservoir water drains their brooks plunge unto the sea desire is my own refrain till when you live with me When the molten lava flows to torch all within its reach the fire that burns within me the ardor that did me breach I cannot endure without you you are the sinews to my bones no cadence exists in music without the ascend of tones All that abides around me might as well be dead apart from your connection lies lifeless thoughts ahead I want to fly into your arms as a bird glides to her nest enclose myself in your embrace and to there forever rest I see with a heart of woman for I know no other kind the person you are consumes me like you no other will I find Every treasure buried deep in earth every symphony of notes I hear less than what conceives your worth its ecstasy when you are near source Song of Solomon COPYRIGHT © 2012 C.
