For You To See
You could take me within summer desert
if your eyes could meet mine and take my hand
shown would be that which I cannot desert
in my own grasp, toss my heart in the sand
then abide by me to the glacial land
watch me as I throw my soul in the snow
sandy, beating heart in hand, I will stand
sallow, cold soul abreast, I will bestow
desolate, I desire for you to know
how you ignite me, passionate as fire
my luminous essence amidst the glow
maybe purely adorned, they could inspire
burning for you, ablaze I will remain
until, evermore, you supply the rain
