woman as you are
the entirety of you...
needed and desired
-----
from dreams emerging
lover clad in my desires...
gossamer raiment
-----
make no promises
words wander off in the wind
place love in my hands
-----
her soft shy buds swell
awakened by lover's touch
warm breathless kisses
-----
show bold nakedness
call courage to bare ourselves
so love may know all
-----
you will never see
those deep scars i keep hidden...
which bleed words daily
-----
each word on the page
first was a wound on my soul...
which will never heal
-----
how a dream should end
you beside me as i sleep...
still there as i wake
-----
our private pleasure
exploring each other's lands...
love's an adventure
-----
you smiled at my words
seeing what i could not see...
i discovered me
-----
