You Arrived On a Comet

You arrived on a comet, from out of the blue
And, entered my life when I hadn’t a clue

A whisper of smoke permeating my soul
Rekindling the fires and making me whole

I spoke of my fears and you soothed them away
You called me your Queen…said you wanted to stay

Your love freed my soul, now I drink from that cup
Since the day that you asked me to “please open up”

I was aching to love like before I knew pain
Now you’ve freed up my heart to do that again

I’ve pulled out the stops, thrown the caution aside
Put my soul at your feet, thrown away all my pride

My love has no need for these trivial things
My heart only craves all the love that you bring

In the merciless quiet of this room alone
I offer my heart as your eternal home
