Desire and Flame

Beneath the surface,
The burn for you was slow
And blazing.
Desire
And
Lust
Lived there,
But love is the flame
And your touch,
The spark.

I’m in the throes
Of a manifestation come to life.
And my treasured
Lady Moon heard it all.

She smiled down upon
My face,
And her light shone all
Around me.
Her light guided
My way,
My heart,
My soul to you.

And her kisses,
Fell from the heavens
Like blessings of the night.
My beloved,
My cherished,
My darling Lady Moon.

I spoke in riddles,
In hushed prayers,
Wishing for her to hear me.
Hoping she’d make miracles
Out of the stars.

I spoke to her
In lost words and
Whispered pleas.
And then something beautiful
Happened.
She whispered back.

She spoke of you,
And the beauty of your soul.
She spoke of you,
And the light that surrounds you.
She spoke of you,
Of how your love
Could make me whole.

In my bones,
I felt it.
In my cavernous black heart,
I believed it.
In my distrustful mind,
I knew it.

You were the risen sun,
And I would bask in your light.
