Breath of Love

Inhale the sweet fragrance, a breath of love
in evening's light splayed of glorious shade
beneath the moon's slow rise with stars above
lover's merged eyes silently to persuade
filled by measured passion love has yearned for
they'll share love's abundance of wants and needs
passionate prisoners and welcomed captor
that will tremble in the realm love concedes
to burn desires in the heart's whitest flame
seduced in the warm arms of expression
the breath of love will breathe in this domain
as they surrender with their confession
nothing is left beneath the glow of dawn
no trace of two lovers, as they have gone
