Declarations of Love
My pearl. My deep one.
The moment we touched, you gave me life.
You and I were made for each other.
I thirst for you when your rains don’t touch me.
I search for you, within my depths
Your storms, my flowers grow
Your rivers, my rocks caress.
Your oceans, my cliffs they crash.
Your waves, my shores they kiss.
Stay with me my love, my deep one.
Don’t ebb too far.
***
Hush. My heart of stone
Hush. My resilient queen.
Let me. Let me feed you.
Let me. Let me tease your shores.
Hush. My clouds will weep for you.
Hush. Your roots shall drink.
Sweetness. The honey of your flowers.
Sweetness. The taste of your fruit.
Rush. Your beauty gives me.
Rush. You hold my soul.
Caress. Your leaves and petals.
Caress. Your mountain peaks.
Hush. I’m here, my wise one.
Hush. My love endures.
***
Let me roar for you my fleeting temptress.
You feed my soul. You light me ablaze.
I die without you. I suffocate.
So let me breathe and let me burn.
Let me burn for you. I always do.
Let my fires dance for you.
Let my flames reach for your skies
Let my heat warm your embrace.
My fleeting temptress
My seductive mist
Feed me. Let me live, another day.
***
Your flames are tempting, you dangerous beast.
Your heat is stifling, I want to retreat.
But you draw me in, you eat me up, you wild one.
You tease, you flirt, you chase my breeze.
Your embers sparkle, they’re quite a wonder.
Your roar and crackle, remind me of thunder.
You’re at my mercy, you raging monster.
And once our little dance is over and you’ve devoured all in your wake.
I will choke you, I will smother you.
Then, till we meet again my little devil.
I look forward to rekindling our love affair.
