Essence of Love
Weep not for the passion
but for the love my heart consumes
Taste not my lips
but the desire upon my breath
Feel not the touch of my hands
but the beating of my heart against yours
See not my eyes
but deep within my soul
where the essence of my being
awaits your embrace
Ache not for my leaving
but for the loneliness felt
from being apart
Rejoice not for my return
but for the love I bring anew…
