The Instincts of Innocence

Take my hand Love,
to where the stars hide
above the upper blue of hot day,
burning on the fingertips of Eternity's forbidden skin
waiting within the thin melody of ivory savagery
for us to escape the boundaries of silent imagination, 
we must go to where they struggle for our blessing
we must see the symbol that we survive for high in their souls
listen to the age of their light, taste the wisdom of their words,
I need you to come with me to the birthplace of my love for you
I need you to feel the movement of our young future in your honest ear,
let them witness the love catalyst,  launch between our heart bound eyes
and in the finesse of our body fire they will know the faith and furor of stellar success
as comet accents furnish the secrets of ancient suns with crystal hymns
reflecting the atomic romance burgeoning blissfully in the volcanic skies of our combined minds -

J.A.B.

"we must go to where they struggle for our blessing we must see the symbol that we survive for high in their souls...." Very interesting lines...we've got to have our witnesses when something so beautiful such as this occurs...there is nothing more special than the fusion of two genius minds...the understanding and wisdom is collateral...grand...eternally spacious. The universe is our audience, and we all look forward to your atomic eruptions...Always, Laura

This journey to the source of love provokes one to disregard the boundaries of the imagination, to feel the tender touches of your affection, and to bask in all of its possibilities. I am enamored by this " furor of stellar success" you have composed, Justin... the light you shine is ageless, full of delectable sights, sounds, feels and tastes. I love the ancient suns and the volcanic skies that make up your fascinating mind..
