Rapture

Languid eyelids hovering shut, Vivacious lovers intertwined, All is well inside this dream; but, My flushed limbs are listless; you had me unwind, And now I am awake; aware, Withal you are not here, My body, mind, soul; these are all bare, Without your presence I can not see; nothing is clear. Caterwaul, scream, rip at my hair, These are all actions I wish to perform, But I lay still and envision your face; I do not fall I do not tear. My emotions are wild; the perfect storm; Come and save me from myself, In this hidden world I feel truly alone, My heart is yours to take; upon the shelf, Without your presence I am striped to the bone. If patience is required for us to meet, Then I will wait until the sands blow away, The thought of melting in your arms is the greatest treat, And I shall hope you will catch me when I begin to sway, Kiss my head upon the brow, Take my hand in yours, To you this is my sacred vow, Forevermore I will be yours. Once we are together; that first gentle time, We will not be forced apart; to you my love, With you I will take that climb. Never apart, always loving, this is what my dreams are made of. Believe I will always be that hand upon your shoulder, To comfort and caress, Our love will forever smolder, Forevermore I will say yes.
