Breathe

Yes breathe the thinning air, our hearts dance ever higher Stare the lovers' stare, gold dripping from desire Whisper me a promise, we'll waltz into a dream Up the passages of darkness, under luminous moonbeams To the rhythm of our souls, where time exists no more This never ending lovers' dance with stardust on the floor Our hearts will beat as one, dancing deep into the night Never letting go, trying to quench love's appetite Your serenade of blissfulness which echoes through the cave With captured plunder we'll escape, our thoughts will misbehave The moon will blush, the stars will wink, the moment last forever As we drink a cup of happiness, fulfill Cupid's endeavor So breathe my wayward leaf of old, fall into this dream Waltz up and down the stairs of rune, where time is not redeemed Deep in the crevices of the moon, taste the dripping gold Let's take this breath together, 'til both are leaves of old by Daniel Turner

I love this DT:) To create a poem around a necessity of life and weave in a romance is brilliant. The feel is intimate with nature blessing their union as the two joyfully dance. Beautiful writing, a joy to read. a fave, 7+ lynnxxx thinking of you:)
