The Beauty of Us
I drift away,
yet you are still by my side,
aching for my love,
if only in spirit-
I need reassurance...
you stay with such ease.
I sift away,
yet I am still in your thoughts,
remembering my passion,
if only in desire-
I need compassion...
you give with such mercy.
For you are my hourglass;
your grains that sift through my
narrowness-
and I am your dew drop,
quenching each petal that holds
together your nectar.
