Just Breathe

Inside the forestry of his heart I live
inhaling the scent of his deep woods
I could never fill those Timberlands boots 
nor explain the thrill that he provides  
when he arrives at the grove of my soul 
and whispers, "Darling, I love you " 

softly cloaked and protected by his pine  
I am evergreen in moments like these 
Existing in this charming jungle of love 
I could never retrace my steps, for  
arriving in this place of no return 
I feel as suitable as a thriving conifer  

Inside  this  evergreen existence, I just am  
breathing in the fragrance of his loyalty  
I feel like a woman in love, ...
After a lifetime of bending, to his will    
I am the wind that blows on his heart 
when I get to him, I just breathe...
