Twilight peeked through wooden fingertips
like shimmering swords of the yellow night;
speaking into my dreams as if to wake me from my tearful slumber
until finally...I saw her

She was holding me ~ needs matched
as I squeezed her closer within my arms
while we let the stars' prying eyes shine brightly
onto our freshly wet painting

A lifetime to draw magic from ~
sparkling crystal flames
Her eyes found mine in the night

Her smile could dwarf my importance ~
bristle atop dusty yellow coats of bumblebee backs
silent climbing suns across rising red skies
I stood as a moment before an eternity

A symphony of our whispering destiny
twirling in spirals of intertwining smiles
danced above us like a bright fire's white smoke;
It writes its poetry within the wind.

Her lips dripped into my breath ~
deeply dipping splashes of thirsty wants
An endless glowing ocean of golden sweet spring nectar ~
as we swam together under the sugar waves

Every sting of every slap
every shiver of every caress
every missing morning of every witnessed moon
had a piece of every everything that I knew

There are hardly words for an experience never meant for explanation

My devotion to her grows stronger the moment the sentence stops
I will tell her each day my appreciation ~ from the beginning
Our love will have not a break, nor a pause
It will simply be a story...forever to be unending...
