The Source of Your Magic

Your presence is like a thin fabric
That I wear here and now with comfort
Unveiled through each breath I take 

My eyesight like a pair of scissors,
Slices through with each blink you mirror
An ordinary day becomes a day in the life

Through the ripples of your touch
I drop into your devotion
Your tide carries me beyond sensation

With words in affectionate thought
I connect to your illusive soul
To the unknown source of your magic

A single breath away..
Our irrational fears desensitised 
Subtly, you help me face the long years

Our heartbeats synchronised
I retire never having learnt your secret
And we disappear harmoniously into the past
