Love's Quiet World

Love is a quiet world, with spacious realms The heart will completely abandon its rules And kiss the conqueror who overwhelms To become King or court jester of fools To trade your honor for willingly warm lips When this world is confined between two arms A soft touch to the mouth from fingertips Will bring heart's guarded ramparts to disarm This fiery world that needs no translation Will expose the soul to its heated core And claim burning hearts and their salvation As flames turn to ashes for evermore Love is a quiet world filled with debris Left by court jesters not the Kings who flee
