Instruments of Love

I recite your name in the whispers of the wind for bonded to my heart are you until the end I lifted the chalice drank deeply of its wine I felt of its effects the fullness of divine Like the chords of piano and dulcimers delight your melodies do waft through every thought at night a master plays the chords a violin with strings plays my heart like a harp whose music on it rings Your fingers play me like the stroke of piano keys every touch I enjoy your heart it aims to please you are a symphony whose chords have touched my heart a birth cries transmission of transformation every part Songs like an aria may yet I learn to sing whose vocals resonate the inmost of my being You left no line untouched no strand is mine alone made sure you did I knew would make you me your own Somewhere I lost myself I gave it all to you things I don't understand reasons appear askew I inhale you my breathe to deepest parts within need you to embrace me as close as your own skin We retire together speak 'neath the baleful skies of every trial in life and those who live in lies greet me in the morning curl around me at night sing to me of love songs of futures very bright The wedding of my heart tears away my mind I want to forever hold you for all of time Are not your words a bath that removes the worlds dirt a balm of medicine to heal the deepest hurt Its surpassing sweetness a palate of good taste love so intoxicating no drop will go to waste the adversary's here and tramples the flowers but you oh my beloved too freely roam my hours My life is but a breath an instrument of song music tells the stories of lives and right and wrong The scent of yesterdays the pathways of the past forward now the future into the everlast Proverbs 16 24 Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
