Quenched

Caught in these thorns and thistles...
Yet... Delectable and delicious is your sweet breath...
I tire as I am on fire with thoughts of you...

Do you seek me as I seek you?
Ever quickly I thirst for more...
In a dreamlike state is where I am quenched...
Only by you... I am complete...

Unraveled chains plummet to the ground...
I am saved.... I rave...
Do you claim me as I claim you?
I yearn as I learn more...

Come back... With me to my dear sweet dream...
For in my dreams... is where I am quenched...
