Love in love with you

When I feel so far away from your touch, I weep,

but somehow inside I know your love has never left.

From all over my heart screams out for your accent,

speaking beautiful thoughts portrayed in my eyes.

No amount of distance can keep our hearts apart,

forsaken man in love with an angel of light.

I hear you looking my way as rain falls in my tears,

such a feeling to make wet this man you make me.

All things under my hands beautifully revealed,

a twist of you in my life undecided by reality.

Is it just in the ways that you see me I fall,

or the light you place in my shadows.

Feelings entwined with thoughts so dark,

light in me your love, shade me from myself.

Never do I feel alone when with you.

You call me out in this life now beautiful.

Beautiful love tested by fears of pain.

Pain letting go of all that used to matter.

Matter you make me, understanding now clear.

Clear dreams of illusions fixated on belief.

Everything I see in the mirror has your face,

undone pain living beyond the reach of hell.

Heavenly light breaking deep into my eternity,

bound under our tree of life and love.

Scratch my skin, show me your painful lust,

touch me how you will, I will find understanding.

Take my breath away from my eyes,

outcome foreseen as my lights fade away.

New Moon trusting waters of old,

the tides of designs painting our bodies in love.

Tear my heart apart with all that is you,

burn clean my soul on fire just for this.

In my heart there is always your tears,

no need to let go of what you already have.

I will wait for you in our gardens so true,

living light in love, in love passionately with you.
