I seek comfort from a world
that offers nothing
but the storm clouds upon its back.
dying wishes star the sky with a blanket
of withered trust,
while truth and fear leech onto our skin.
my eyes shut with pains of relief,
leaving white hot scars
in a glow.
she folds her hands upon my heart,
soothing my life
until the very end.
but in a rush of hunger!
her heart, filled with vibrant fires,
breathes all life into my lungs,
and love in my eyes.
and I awaken in all sense of the word.
nightmares are brought to
a timely end, and desire is born
inside spirited dreams.
to have and to hold,
our lives now unfold
my heart is yours,
our love eternally soars-
