Indomitable Love

leaning ...... and falling
my last thoughts of only you
drifting in between
your touch, my crash, rushing past-
my soul racing to your side
forever, in love
never silenced heart be lost
rising from the ash
mere flesh all that disappears

...Dedicated to the memory of those we lost on 9-11...forever in our hearts
