Solace

The warmth of your touch 
enlivens my pale spirit. 
You are the solace 
where my poor heart could rest. 
Like a flame in the darkness 
that gives my only light, 
you're the torch in my fortress 
in a cold lonely night. 
If I could do more 
to glorify your beauty,
I'd chant praises to your door 
every night and every day.
