Then My Love

Did not the promise of my life unto you pledge eternity Within the scriptures of the pages of our love Inscribed upon the parchment of this union As we created the intimate, the divine, and the sensual Did I not hold you in the palm of my hand Raise my hand to my mouth Swallow you whole Did I not devour this love This intimacy, this divine sensuality Then my love As pure as the connection of our spirit's wine Did I not drink from the chalice of your soul Lick my lips to savour it's elixir It's life force Did not the very banquet of your body Become the food of my heart Then my Love As the end of days on earth stepped forward As the breath exchanged between us Every inhaled and exhaled breath of love Did we not become reborn in Eden Then my Love Then Did not the permanency of this bond ensure Our love will last forever As I take your hand Raise it to my lips My head bowed in honour of this love Then my love And Only then Tell me you understood
