Gorgeous Honey

For Travis

Drunk on love I soar above them all And if I fall away To that sleeping valley Like a cool rain From a diamond sky I will flood those beneath With gorgeous honey. I need not their power All is beauty And I worship only Love. Beneath the moon We fall in shadow And trip together My lazy friend and I. Sing to me brother Of still lake water As I dream About the elaborate garden. Whisper to me of Winter’s beauty For I am weak From the storm And need to Take my leave From this flood. Do not ask me to go. In all my life I will never leave. Why would I? There is no beauty No light without you. Yet as I sit and watch The peach pink sky My heart is on fire. My blood is delirious. I still need love.
