The movement of time
Slows
Quivers
In your eyes
The future of my universe
Lives
Happily
In your smile
**
All that I am
All that I’ll be
Rises
Like the sun as
You gaze
Into me
**
Your lips smooth as
Silk
Moist
With their longing
Pull me like
The moth
Into your
Fire
Of
Belonging
**
Your lips slowly
Rising
Like the moon
Pulls the tide
Your skin shines
Like diamonds
Twinkling
In the
Sky
**
The ease of your
Smile
Is like heaven
To me
Like a bird
On a wing
I float
Effortlessly
**
Into the soft warm
Embrace
Of your
Calming
Caress
**
All my dreams
My wishes
My hopes
Come true
**
To be blessed
With
This gift
This love
That is
You!

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
