My Mourning Dove

My mourning dove coo's 
and I soar 
encircling every wave 
every echo held peace 
in search of her call 

My eyes struggle to vent 
steam reaching her peak 
and I'm ready to scream 
as my thoughts embrace 
her wings setting us free 

Come to me my soulful mate 
delve into the depths off my right 
shelve yesterday's emptiness 
for well into the sunset we are full

I'm thinking you have the touch to turn your mourning dove into the dove who wakes with you each morning.
