To Love Again
1
Love, oh love, the beauty of pure passion
to yearn and dream of your wondrous intent
bearer of gifts conquers my heart's bastion
in quiet solitude allows consent
stay calm my heart from eyes glorious bond
that pierce my soul's armor steadfastly held
to steal my heart's shield long weathered and worn
you offer a kiss for passions to spawn
this vision of love my heart has withheld
you rush to love's altar, my soul's transformed
2
I lay in your arms, emotions unknown
and touch love's eternal bliss that shimmer
to relight the ashes where flames have grown
these sparks cause a heart's passion to glimmer
I'll cross the loneliness where love forgives
to throw off the darkness where my love hides
find a paradise in love's treasured mirth
and a sense of forever that still lives
where trust and honor are the purest guides
that allows my heart to accept rebirth
3
To be so loved as to finally yield
and surrender the sum of my being
knowing when in love nothing is concealed
as I bow to the love I am seeing
like a rose dressed in red, plucked while in bloom
this flower with its fragrant scent so sweet
where honey drips from the eyes of lovers
and fills my soul with sensual perfume
to make the bonding of our love complete
whispers and sighs are what love discovers
