Desire begins

The moon hangs low
On a cloudy night
Crushing my fragile heart

Happiness co-mingles
With a touch of sadness
Leaving me confused

Lost yesterdays are gone
And tomorrow may never be
Only the present remains

But you’re not here
And I’m not there
Where is our common time?

Would it be in midnight dreams
Along the sacred shores
Of our timeless love?

Silent memories of midnight
Tender in the dark
Remembrance sweet to the taste
The heat of your love
Haunts my dreams of you

The seat of my passion swells
With endless devotion
My mind drifts across a lonely sea
To seek loving shelter
In your warm embrace

Occupied with mystical hours
In the dead of night
I caress your soul with the whisper
Of my endless love and breathe you in
Until my heart smiles once again

Thunder grumbles
Somewhere in the night
Pulling me from the wreckage
Of my melancholy thoughts

My heart wanders in the dark
Lost in nocturnal madness
Sinking in depths of sadness
Mixed up in midnight-blue

No stars to wish upon
Just lightning across
An endless black sky
A jagged blink, then gone

Wish I could ride
A fiery bolt upon the wind
Straight to wherever you
May be tonight…

…and

Find peace in your loving arms…

In the tranquil hours of night
I walk in your soul
You live in my heart
With each beat
With each breath
We are one

Dawn merges with morn
I melt into you
You capture my spirit
Our hearts swell with passion
Our bodies weep with ecstasy
We are eternal love

My Warrior, My Beloved, My Everything
I’ll Love You Endlessly

I LOVE
gazing at stars on a cold, winter night
making wishes on moonbeams
the silence of new fallen snow
and the sound of peace it brings

I LOVE
green apples in the springtime
yellow daises, fields of grass
gentle rains, dew drops on morning glories
fluffy clouds in a bright, blue sky

I LOVE
lazy summer afternoons
heat shimmering in the distance
wading in a cold creek on a hot day
sitting on a porch swing wrapped up in a blanket
watching a thunder and lightening storm

I LOVE
the nostalgic smell of Fall
red, orange, and yellow trees
smoke from a chimney
leaves swirling, dancing in the wind
sleeping in a tent feeling the warmth of my lover
shooting sparks from a campfire

I LOVE
the sky just before dark
sunset over a lake
catching lightening bugs
counting raindrops
the sound of crickets late at night

I LOVE
staring at the moon
letting it mesmerize me
taking me places I’ve never been
riding a shooting star across the midnight sky

I LOVE
gurgling creeks flowing over rocks
crunching leaves under my feet
snow capped mountains
fields of hay
cloudless skies

I LOVE
waves crashing on the beach
the salty smell in the air
wet sand between my toes
the wind playing with my hair
moonlight over the sea

I LOVE
Gone with the Wind
sultry southern nights
lace curtains blowing through an open window
sheets blowing in the summer breeze
romantic comedies
fireplaces in the dark

I LOVE
dancing in the rain
laughing in the sun
kissing in the moonlight
holding hands under a velvet sky

I LOVE
new socks
lace underthings
satin caressing my body
sleeping in silk
cotton next to my skin

I LOVE
a cat curled upon my lap
a dog’s happy kisses
a baby’s breath on my cheek
a child’s hugs

But most of all
I LOVE YOU!

I’ve traveled to far
and exotic places
tasted the forbidden fruit
of life’s pleasures

I’ve danced in the rain
and felt its gentle touch
gazed at a full moon
on a cloudless Winter night

I’ve heard the katydids sing
and the night music come alive
wished for secret things
on the first star light

I’ve walked for miles
along a deserted beach
squished wet sand between my toes
and drawn peace from the crashing waves

I’ve waded in a cold creek
on a hot Summer day
picked violets beside the riverbank
and smelled their sweet perfume

I’ve slept in a field of daisies
on a warm Spring day
closed my eyes
and conceived a thousand dreams

I’ve listened to the rain drum
a lulling rhythm on a tin roof
opened my windows at dusk
and heard the pelting of raindrops on leaves

But none of those things have brought me
as much pleasure as
spending time with you, my friend!

I’d stop the world for you
And put all your wishes in place
Then give it a mighty spin
And watch you smile in delight
As each dream came true

I’d offer you the warmth of my body
When the night gets too cold and lonely
Then wrap you in my sweet love
And listen to the rapid beat of your heart
As I hold you safe in my arms

I’d take down the stars one by one
And surprise you with a different gift each night
Then I’d travel to the ends of the earth to find more
And make us a heaven all our own
As I spend eternity pleasing only you

I’d steal candy-coated kisses from the moon
And sprinkle them all over your body
And fulfill your every desire with my gentle touch
Then watch the storm of emotion raging in your eyes
As I caress your heated skin

I’d make passionate love to you
Until the mountain tops felt the sun’s kiss
Then I’d love you again until time is no more
And breathe luscious promises in your ear
As I whisper, you’re all I’ll ever want, need
Or love in this world-without-end

Alone underneath the midnight sky
I lift my face to the stars
And imagine each one a kiss
Sent from you to taste my lips

Alone underneath the midnight sky
I lift my hands toward the moon
And imagine its light as heat
Sent from you to keep me warm

Alone underneath the midnight sky
I close my eyes to feel the wind
and imagine its gentle touch
Sent from you to caress my body

Alone underneath the midnight sky
I feel your arms wrapped around me
And imagine a whisper in the silence
Sent from you to tell me I’m not alone
