True Love
I have thought my entire life
I needed magnificent views
And vast landscapes
To satisfy my soul
The truth is it doesn’t matter
Where I am because
The beauty surrounding me
Isn’t what sustains my spirit
The sun lifts once more
Above the sea
I close my eyes and fall
In love with how I remember you
I sit there in the dark
Beneath the stars
In the galaxy of my heart
Finally discovered, by you
I feel so much
Because you are so much
More than you will ever know
And I am unable to pour it out
So instead I kiss your soul
Slow and tender
With words rising and falling
To the rhythm of my heartbeat
Now I know and desire
No other taste
Than the one lingering
From your sweet spirit
It sustains me
Breathes life into my soul
A warm sliver of light
Spilling across my once cold world
